What is recorded here

Detached four-bay two-storey house, built c.1800. Later porch extension (east). Pitched artificial slate roofs with red brick chimneystack and uPVC rainwater goods. Pitched corrugated-iron roof to porch. Painted rendered walls with plinth and rendered eaves course. Square-headed openings with two-over-two timber sliding sash and replacement uPVC windows with concrete sills. Square-headed door opening with replacement timber panelled door. Rubble limestone outbuildings to front and rear. Rubble limestone boundary walls.
This house is an excellent example of the vernacular tradition which was once found throughout the countryside but is not now sadly increasingly rare. The asymmetrical fenestration and off centre chimneystacks are typical features.
