Description

A 3½-storey 2-window house roofed in a single range with Nos 7-10, but separated from the later No 7 by a full-height vertical joint. Of large slate-stone blocks laid in regular courses, slate roof with added skylights, and shared stone stacks. Openings are offset to the R. The main entrance is on the R, which has a replacement half-glazed boarded door in an unusually wide doorway. To its L another doorway has been converted to a window. Middle and upper storeys have 4-pane horned sash windows, of which the R-hand in each storey was originally a doorway. The rear has replacement windows.

The lower storey, said to have formerly been a shop, is now a single room. It has a wooden newel stair to the middle storey, probably either re-used or re-set. The middle storey is 2 rooms deep, the partition between which retains a small-pane window, and the front room has a slate fireplace lintel. The dog-leg-stair to the upper storey is later. The roof has 2 purlins on each side.
