What is recorded here

Terraced three-bay single-storey house, built c. 1800. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with rendered chimneystack. Rendered walls. Square-headed openings with two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows with painted sills. Square-headed opening having half-glazed timber panelled door.
This vernacular house retains much of its original form and character. The steeply pitched roof suggests the house was originally thatched. It is now roofed in corrugated-iron which replaced thatch as a vernacular material in the late-nineteenth, early twentieth century. Vernacular buildings are now particularly rare in urban areas, making this survival particularly significant.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
