Appraisal
Though the original render has been removed, this house retains much of its historic fabric, seen particularly in the slate roof, chamfered panelled door, moulded door surround, limestone sills and timber windows (now hidden by boarding). Its hipped roof and symmetrical form is typical of middle sized houses of its time. The associated outbuildings add to its setting and context.
