Full Description
(S1) describes this as a pair of semi-detached houses in Arts and Crafts style. Rendered under peg-tiled roof; lower storey brick. Unlike Nos. 7 and 9 (NHER 62851), this pair of houses is not symmetrical. No. 13 (The Bennals) is comprised of two separately roofed but interrelated elements of which the rear one embraces the other on the E with a catslide roof over the entrance, interrupted by a square flat-roofed 'dormer' with windows facing N and E. Square-leaded casements of various shapes and sizes. Tall brick stacks. Tall brick tower between 13 and 11 which forms the entrance to No 11. The ridge of its gabled top runs back to join the main roof ridge with which it is level. For the rest no 11 has a simple pitched roof with a long downward sweep to the eaves in front.
Probably pre 1914: these look like the 'original' sort of Arts and Crafts design; these two built for sons of
Sir Alfred Jermyn, local shop entrepreneur. No. 11 was the Methodist Manse. Miss Audrey Stratford, who lived at No. 13, thought that originally 11 and 13 were one house; the join between them is complex.
(S2) records No. 11 being occupied by a Wesleyan minister in 1933, and in 1960 the same property was occupied by a Methodist minister (S3).
