Plain band across full width of facade immediately below first-floor windows. Moulded eaves cornice; 2 courses of slates at front of roof. The ridge of No.43 is slightly higher than that of No.41. In the left return, on the first floor, is an early C19 horizontal sash of 6+6 lights. The rear wing has on the first floor, at right, an early C19 top-hung casement of 6 lights, and at the gable end an early C19 horizontal sash of 6+6 lights.
INTERIOR: No.41 has chamfered transverse and axial beams, and chamfered joists of horizontal section with step stops, all sand-blasted and limed. On the upper floor all surfaces are plastered, except that within the rear wing part of the rear wall of the main range is exposed, with close studding and a curved brace trenched to the outside, an incomplete unglazed window, and the wallplate severed for access to the rear wing; the wall has been raised approximately 0.75m above the wallplate in the C18/early C19. The roof of the left and middle bays must be of this date, but in the right bay (No.43) the roof may be original - plastered to the rafters, without access. No.43 has similar exposed beams, joists plastered to the soffits, and an internal 6-panel door, the top 2 panels glazed.
