Heavy modillion cornice and blocking course. 2 storeys, 3 bays, centre projects slightly, in rusticated stucco, with parapet and cornice.

INTERIOR: not inspected. One of the row of 3 houses built in New Leeds, land sold by Earl Cowper for villas outside the town centre. The speculation was unsuccessful and only a small number of plots was built on by 1847; the failure of the venture contributed to Sir Walter Scott's insolvency.
