Early C17. Hammer-dressed stone. Pitched stone slate roof, 2
storeys. Oldest part has twin-gabled front. Central door with
moulded surround and shallow-arched monolithic head indicates
that it was built as one dwelling. But it may have been divided
into 2 within 100 years, as the 2 flanking doors also appear to
be C17 or early C18: viz, chamfererd surrounds and hoodmoulds.
All windows have double hollow-chamfered reveals and hoodmoulds,
each with one light a sash. West gable has 5-light mullioned and
transomed window on 1st floor, 7-light mullioned and transomed
window on ground floor. East gable has one 6-light mullioned
and transomed window on each. Central 1st floor 2-light mullioned
window. 2 stone gargoyles one at valley, one at west end of
west gable (suggesting a possible third gable further west). Tall
stack at east end.
Rear elevation has same gable arrangemnt. 1st floor has one
5-light stone mullioned window in each gable, and one 3-light
stone mullioned window in centre. Ground floor has one 6-light
stone mullioned and transomed window in east gable, its
correspondent blocked by one storey C18 or C19 pitched roofed
extension. Extension to east: 2 storeys: probably early C18:
rear has one range of 4-light stone mullioned windows of same
type as others: otherwise the mullions are of the C18 square-
sectioned type (one 3-light and one 2-light on 1st floor at
rear: one 2-light on 1st floor at east end, together with
blocked loading door and gable window: 2 ranges of 3-light
windows to front): coped gable and with moulded kneelers. (2)
