arches, and a similar narrow 4/4 sash. Platband between the
floors with a moulded under surface. Six 6/6 first-floor
sashes under gauged skewback arches as before and, at either

storeys and is illuminated through 6/6 sashes under gauged
skewback arches. Modillion and dentil eaves cornice. Gabled

has a 3-storey cross-wing rendered and whitewashed and pierced
at irregular intervals by C19 and C20 sashes.
INTERIOR: the 3 interiors have been knocked together with that
to No.3 (qv). The entrance is from the door to the former
No.2B. Reception area to left (formerly in No.2) has a late
C16 plaster ceiling divided by a plastered beam with
sunk-quadrant mouldings. The 4 main compartments of the design
are defined by roll-moulded ribs, and each has a concave-sided
octagon with the pointed tips elaborated into foliate sprays.
In the centre of the octagons are foliage grounds and a short
jelly-mould pendants. The staircase to No.1 is C20. The
first-floor front room to No.2B has a late C16 plaster ceiling
also. One plastered bridging beam with roll mouldings. There

large-frame panelling and egg-and-dart cornices over all 3
doors. Front range roof of chamfered tie beams, slightly
cambered, and rebuilt above in mid C20.
