What is recorded here

Semi-detached four-bay single-storey former house, c.1905. Random coursed squared granite walls. Original timber casement windows with wrought-iron grilles, including single segmental-headed opening. Gabled projecting granite porch with semi-circular fanlight and replacement door. Pitched slate roof with brick chimney stack. In use as Post Office and shop with separate business in buildings to rere. Cast-iron pillar post box to street, c.1985.
The common palette of materials, the subtle variations of features such as opening profiles and roof types, and the informal arrangement of the semi-detached pairs along this picturesque country road combine to create a most attractive group of early twentieth-century local authority houses. This house appears substantially intact.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
