Appraisal
The fenestration pattern, of paired end windows flanking a central window is typical of the eighteenth century. Apparently partially burnt and rebuilt in the 1920s, this house would appear to have been substantially remodelled at that time. The building retains fabric and character from both periods, seen particularly in the fenestration pattern, limestone sills, timber sliding sash windows and hipped roof. The related outbuildings add to its setting and context.
