Description
End-of-terrace four-bay two-storey townhouse with integral carriage arch, built c.1840. Pitched natural slate roof with clay ridge tiles, cast-iron rainwater goods and a brick chimneystack. Roughly coursed limestone rubble walls. Square-headed openings with two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows and cut-stone sills.

Appraisal
An appealing small-scale house of vernacular form and appearance that retains its original form and character and most of its original fabric. It is one of the few buildings in the village to survive with an intact carriage arch complete with early timber doors and iron fittings. This structure is an important component to the streetscape and contributes strongly to the historic character of Church Street.
