NHER 33489 (Building record) - 39 and 41 Front Street

Listed as pair of 17th century cottages of 'cut flint', knapped, and whitewashed brick.

No. 41 has four iron casements on ground floor, 5 windows above, gable stack and central 20th century stack.
No.39 has 2 iron casements, eaves band, and party stack to No.41.

(S1) mentions 'internal quoins' to north bay of No.41 but does not note that No.39 projects several inches to the east of 41 and has its own northeast quoins. The brickwork is no longer all whitewashed and does seem 17th century. There is reused stone in the walls.

Note: on the adjacent plot to south a new house, No.37 has recently been erected, with its northeast quoins made of large reused stone blocks.
