house

Detached five-bay single-storey with attic house, built c.1880, with porch to front and three-bay outbuilding attached to west. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge cresting, red brick chimneystacks, cast-iron rainwater goods and having terrcotta ridge cresting, timber bargeboards with finial to porch. Painted ruled-and-lined rendered walls, with render castle motif above door. Segmental-headed window openings with render surrounds and having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and painted sills. Square-headed door opening with replacement uPVC door having render surround. Adjoining outbuilding to west with pitched slate roof, painted rendered walls, having timber battened doors to openings and two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window. Outbuilding to east with corrugated-iron roof and pebbledashed walls. Cobbled yard to front of house, with wrought-iron double-leaf gate to road set to rendered and dry dashed walls.

The use of ridge cresting, slate, cast-iron rainwater goods and render creates textual variation in the appearance of the building. The segmental-headed windows openings with sliding sash windows are notable features which contribute positively to enliven the simple design of the building. The castle design over the door is unusual. The outbuildings and cobbled yard to the front of the house are a fine example of traditional building arrangement of the nineteenth century.
