There was a building on this site in 1823. The house to the rear is entered to SW and includes the 1st and attic storeys of the SE elevation. The plan of building was as now in 1897. A photograph dating from the later 1880s, by AR Edwards (NMRS) shows that the building was line-rendered at that time with a cornice and fascia at ground (similar to now) which extended and was consoled above a door at ground of bay to right.
