Description
Detached four-bay single-storey with attic vernacular house, built c. 1860, with porch to rear. Pitched slate roof with gable ended red brick chimneystacks, clayware ridge tiles, rendered gable coping and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with stone eaves course. Square-headed window openings with three-over-three and six-over-six timber sash windows and stone sills. Square-headed door opening with timber panelled door. Set within own grounds with hedge and garden to front, remains of red brick shed to west and whitewashed rubble stone wall with sloping rendered coping and red brick piers with pyramidal coping and cast-iron gates to the south-east.
Appraisal
A curious vernacular house retaining its original fenestration. There is a former smithy to the east. The cast-iron gates to the front and those at the entrance are the same and may have been made at the smithy.
