What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c. 1820, with side entrance porch to north elevation and single-storey extensions to rear (west) and south elevations. Now in use as house. Pitched slate roof having red brick chimneystack, timber bargeboards and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with exposed roughly dressed walls in places. Square-headed openings with replacement timber casement windows to first floor, fixed timber windows to ground floor with render label mouldings above, all having painted sills. Square-headed opening with replacement timber door having pitched timber carved canopy and limestone step. Square-headed opening to side entrance having timber panelled door approached by flight of brick steps with roughly dressed side wall having rendered coping. Wrought-iron pedestrian gate and rubble-sandstone wall to front of site.
The simple but decorative label mouldings enliven the façade of this house. The side porch is evidence of its former use as a national school and contributes to its character and special interest.
