to the right also stepped back slightly, has a C20 gabled
porch on brackets to the left; above it, a tiny square window
of one pane has a vertical iron bar to the centre; an early
C19 leaded 3-light casement window to the first-floor centre;
a larger late C19 window to the ground-floor right. Rear
lean-to re-rendered and reroofed c1994. Rear wing to No.2 with
late C20 roof light.
