What is recorded here

Detached three-bay single-storey direct entry house, extant 1840, on a rectangular plan. Now disused. Pitched corrugated-iron roof with pressed iron ridge terminating in rendered chimney stack having concrete capping, and no rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Part creeper- or ivy-covered limewashed battered walls. Square-headed window openings (north) with limewashed sills, and concealed dressings including timber lintels framing three-over-six timber sash windows having part exposed sash boxes. Square-headed door opening (south) with concealed dressings including timber lintel framing timber boarded or tongue-and-groove timber panelled door. Road fronted.
A house identified as an integral component of the vernacular heritage of Newbawn by such attributes as the compact rectilinear direct entry plan form; the construction in unrefined local materials displaying a battered silhouette; and the high pitched roof originally showing a thatch finish according to an entry in the ""House and Building Return"" Form of the National Census (NA 1901; NA 1911).

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