End house of row of three timber-framed houses, probably late C17 or early C18, the back walls rebuilt in red brick in late C18 to early C19. The houses are marked on the 1833 map as owned by Charles Gardiner Humphreys of Bank House and on 1839 tithe map this house is occupied by Thomas Davies, with bakehouse. It may be the bakery, New Road, run by Sarah Davies in 1858-9 directory, and the bakery, Chirbury Road, run by Richard Davies in 1880. In C20 it was the bakery of Mr Williams. An old photograph shows more regular square framing of four by eleven bays, c. 1910, the front wall of No 4 since rebuilt in brick and the windows both altered and in different positions. Shown on OS map of 1975 as Cross Lanes.
Terraced house, one of row of three, timber-framed with mock timber-framing painted over brickwork on No 4, with timber-framed E gable. Slate roof with red brick stacks between Nos 2 and 3 and against E gable of No 4, rising through former bakehouse roof. Two storeys, each house of one-window range with doorway. Modern casement windows. No 4 has ledged door in frame to left under gabled slated hood, modern window to right on each floor.
Rear has modern window each floor.
Lower whitewashed stone wing to right, former bakehouse, with slate roof and front window with brick cambered head. Modern glazing.

Included notwithstanding alteration to detail as one of a row of three vernacular timber-framed houses. The thin scantling timber suggests the end of this regional building tradition.
