Summary

The 15th to 18th century house that stands here has been divided into two properties in recent times. It is built from a rendered timber frame with colourwashed brick and clay lump. The main block is single storey with an attic, however there is a two-storey side addtion. Interestingly, the parapet gable to the north facade has the initials H D formed by clamp irons - perhaps this relates to a former owner.
