Description

This is a house in a terraced row, forming a mirrored pair with Castle Kitchen to the left. It features a painted rendered front, a slate eaves roof, and a brick stack at the rear between the two houses. The building has two storeys and an attic, with one window bay and an outer doorway for each house. A central dormer contains a pair of small-paned iron casements on the eaves, adorned with 19th-century fretted bargeboards and a finial. Above the first floor, there is an iron cross-window with an iron opening light.

On the ground floor, there is a ledged door to the right with a glazed panel, set within a thin moulded architrave. The centre features a small oriel shop window, which is smaller than that on Castle Kitchen, with a canted design of 3-9-3 panes, a deep fascia above, and a small slate hipped roof. The oriel is supported by two raking struts. At the rear, there is a rubble stone wing that partly blocks a window in the rear wall, with a door to the left and a pair of casements above. The wing has a west side door with a two-light window above.

Inside, the front room has a heavy cross-axial beam and large squared joists. There is a small L-plan staircase enclosed in the southeast corner, next to the fireplace, featuring flat balusters on the landing rail. The rear wing has a south end fireplace with a timber lintel. On the first floor, there is one cross-axial beam in the north front room and a small 19th-century chimneypiece on the east wall, which shares a chimney breast with Castle Kitchen. There is a timber-framed partition to the south, and the rear south room has timber framing on all walls except the south wall. A single flight of stairs leads to the attic, which has 19th-century square balusters and a closed string. The attic features a heavy oak roof truss located just in front of the chimney breast, with a tie-beam and collar truss, the underside showing mortices for a partition wall. There is one older purlin and one 19th-century purlin in the front roof slope.
