stone mullions and flush surrounds, in 3, 1 and 2 lights.
Between the first 2 is the coped gabled porch with
saddle-stone and kneelers with gablets, over a pointed arch
with label mould; the former doorway is partly blocked, with
glazing above. Both gables are coped, with gableted kneelers,
and most of the ridge cresting remains. To the right is an
external stack with octagonal shaft on a moulded base and with
capping, and to the left a gabled and stepped bellcote. The
left gable end has a blocked oculus above a 3-light casement
with transom, and a plank door in segmental pointed head to
the right. The rear has a 2-light casement including cast-iron
diagonal panes, at the S end. A small gabled original original

INTERIOR: in 4 bays, with braced collar trusses with one
purlin, and boarded, on a boarded floor. Inside the porch is
the original plank door with chamfered framing, and the glazed
transverse room divider remains.
A characteristic building, immediately opposite Church of St
Ann (qv) and Manor House (qv), which has been scarcely altered
from the original design.
