forward still further and has a four-centred chamfered carriage archway on
the ground floor with 2 stores above and a gable surmounting it. The window
bays on each side are of 3 sashes only with gable over each that is slightly
lower than the centre gable. Flanking this central block are small single
storey buildings looking inwards. with no windows facing the road. At the outer
ends are small similar blocks at right angles with a gable over each and a
window facing south in the east one. Then low garden walls, with an opening
in the centre of each, joint the last to the South ends of the East and West
sides of the court-yard which consists of 2 storeys and 1 window each with
a gable over. All the windows are square-headed casements of 3 obtusely-pointed
lights. Slate roofs. Diagonally placed brick chimneys. Within the court-yard
the North side has 25 windows, 2 stores and in the centre a higher block of
3 stores (3 windows) with splayed front and a gable over the centre of each
portion flanking this central feature. The east and west sides of the court-
yard have 6 windows each.
