junctions, that at the 2nd junction surrounded by altered coursing in the
masonry, and with a break in the plinth on each side suggesting the position
of a former porch; 3 recessed windows on each floor, all of 2 lights with
flat-faced mullions and double-chamfered jambs, and all now casements with
glazing bars. Raised gable copings with moulded kneelers; external gable
chimney stacks with corniced chimneys, similar chimney on ridge in line with
2nd door.

Interior: altered, but retains, inter alia, moulded plaster beams and
cornices, the top flight of a wide original staircase, a Tudor-arched
chamfered doorway at rear of 1st floor, and at least one decorated cast-iron
"duck's-nest" hobgrate at 1st floor .

Pair of Cottaqes attached and set back at left end, 2 units and 2 low
storeys, facing to rear: 2 doorways with plain surrounds (lst altered as
windows), 2 square windows on each floor, mostly 2-light horizontal sliding
sashes with glazing bars, and small window at 1st floor.
