pair of dragons at the centre; beneath the jetty are two carved console
brackets, now mainly encased in brick. The tiebeam has similar vinescroll,
and beneath are long shallow arched brackets with diagonally-set carved drop
finials at the eaves. Bargeboards also vinescroll-carved; the drop finial at
the apex was renewed in C19.
