House of bastle character, C16, converted into shop 1818, minor alterations c.1880. Heavy rubble with large quoins, tooled dressings; stone slate roof.
Three storeys, two wide bays. Central double doors; shop front at left has central twelve-pane sash between four-pane sashes, lintel inscribed J.T. (John Trevelyan) 1818; twelve-pane sash at right. First floor: late C19 sash in left bay with remains of original door to right; renewed twelve-pane sash in right bay; small four-pane casements on second floor. Gables with moulded kneelers and overlapped slab coping, stepped and corniced end stacks. Left return has small window, blocked square window in chamfered surround above and sixteen-pane sash to second floor.
Rear wing in two sections; mid C18 three storey part (heightened in 1818) has Yorkshire sash set in blocked doorway with chamfered surround, inserted C19 sash above, similar gable. Two storey part (heightened c.1880) has Yorkshire sashes and similar gable carrying small stepped and corniced stack. Single storey range to left not of interest.
Interior altered, walls c.1.3 metres thick. The building, although apparently a bastle rather than a tower, appears to have been three storeyed from the first.
