What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1830. The house is finished in render and sits on a slightly projecting squared plinth. A rough flight of concrete steps rise to the replacement, part glazed, panelled front door. Window openings are flat-headed with top-hung replacement timber frames. The pitched roof is finished with natural slate and cast-iron rainwater goods. Chimneystacks are rendered with plain copes and clay pots. The house is road fronted; it faces Pound Lane on the southern approach to the Square.
This is a modest house which despite the addition of a modern door and windows helps to maintain the 19th-century rhythm and character of the street.
