What is recorded here

Terraced four-bay three-storey house, built c.1780. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Painted roughcast rendered walls with uPVC cladding to eaves. Square-headed window openings with stone and concrete sills and two-over-two and six-over-six timber sliding sash windows. Square-headed door opening with limestone step and replacement timber glazed door.
The building's tall façade, with its symmetrical fenestration, is in keeping with the scale and form of the neighbouring buildings on Main Street. It forms part of a group of rather curiously designed buildings with its neighbours descending down the hill, all of which appear at first sight to be a former pair of houses now in single use, but when considered as a group, would seem to be purpose-built with an off centre doorcase and a central chimneystack. The building retains much of its early character, in the form of diminishing window openings, substantial chimneystacks and timber sliding sash windows.
