stack to left with brick shaft.
Plan: One room plan surviving of larger house, with entrance to the front, probably
inserted in the mid C19; the room is heated by the gable end stack to left. The
house would formerly have extended further to the right; the surviving room may have
been a kitchen. There is an integral outshut to the rear, and a later outshut,
possibly of the C18, attached to the left side.
Exterior: 2 storeys, asymmetrical 2-window range. Ground floor has recessed doorway
with C20 4-centred arched door with sidelights. Wall slate-hung above the doorway.

light with timber lintel. Right side blind and without quoins. Left side has
outshut of one storey and loft, with unglazed window with plain granite lintel to
front; this conceals the external stack with an oven at the base. The integral
outshut to rear has 4-panelled door at the left side with 3-pane casement above.
