Description
Afallen is a house built from painted rubble stone, featuring a slate eaves roof and rendered stone end stacks. The building is two storeys high and has a symmetrical three-window front, with 12-pane horned sash windows that have brick heads and slate sills. The centre of the front has a 20th-century uPVC door set in its original surround, which includes an overlight recessed in a rendered surround topped with a small wooden cornice on console brackets. The west end wall is roughcast and has overhanging verges.
To the left of the house is a coachhouse with a lower roof, which has two casement-pair windows located under the eaves and two entries that feature flat heads and double board doors. The interior of the house is not available for inspection.
