House at end of row, possibly C16 origins, reshaped C17 and C18. Ham stone near-ashlar; plain clay tiled roof with
bands of scallop tiles and stone slate base courses, between coped gables; stone chimney stacks. Two storeys, 5 bays.
Hollow chamfered mullioned windows in chamfered recess bays 1 to 3, no window remaining upper bay 1, all 3-light except
lower bay 3 right, which is 2-light, with stepped but continuous label below; to left of bay 4 a slightly projecting
chimney stack with offsets leading to single octagonal top with moulded cap: to bays 4 and 5 are reserve-chamfer
mullioned windows of 3 lights, all with separate labels: to left of bay 3 a chamfered cambered-arched doorway with
studded boarded door. On east gable a single-storey C19 angled bay window with flat roof. C20 extensions to rear, but
also moulded square-headed doorway and some apparently C18 transitional casements, ovolo moulded, one with transomes.
Interior not seen, but reported is a 3-room cross passage plan; little surviving detail except the west room which has
wall panelling, moulded ceiling coving and angled corner fireplace: roof trusses have side-lapped pegged collars and
in-line tenoned purlins, some evidence of re-used timbers. (VAG Report, SRO unpublished, 1976).
