Appraisal
This large scale building is an notable feature at a Y-junction. Diminishing windows attest to house's age, while the retention of historic fabric including tooled stone sills and sash windows adds much to its character. The pointed arch opening with red-brick voussoirs set in the gable apex is a curious feature.
