Description
The Hollies is a two-storey house built in the second quarter of the 19th century, likely with earlier origins. It is constructed of rubble with a slate roof and features plain brick chimneys at the centre and right. The entrance is off-centre to the right and includes a door with three moulded panels that have raised centres, surrounded by lights with spiral borders. Above the door is a rectangular overlight with marginal glazing that includes small coloured panes, and there is a fringed hood supported by scrolled metal brackets.
On either side of the entrance are single-storey canted bays with plain-glazed cross windows and dentilated cornices on their flat roofs. To the far left, there is a modern garage entrance, which likely enlarges a former carriage entrance leading to the rear of the property. The first floor has four unevenly spaced cross-windows, which have modern glazing.
To the right is a lower two-storey wing (number 67) that features tripartite small-pane sash windows on each floor, with the ground floor window having a cambered head and rough-dressed voussoirs. The return elevation of number 67 includes two sash windows with glazing bars and a moulded six-panel door.
