What is recorded here
Detached five-bay single-storey house with dormered attic, built c.1875, having later alterations. Pitched and hipped artificial slate roof with gabled attic dormers and rendered chimneystacks. Rendered walls. Paired small-pane margined two-over-two pane and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows to front elevation with render label-mouldings, and with oriel window having timber sashes to dormer floor. Replacement timber casement windows to rear, which has been more recently altered and extended. Replacement timber panelled front door. Rendered round-plan gate piers with fluted necks, stepped conical caps with ball finials, wrought-iron gates and cast-iron railings to site.
An interesting house of several phases of construction which may contain fabric from an earlier house. Several features of artistic and architectural merit are retained, most notably all the front elevation windows, decorative cast-iron railings and the unusually large circular gate piers. The house makes an interesting architectural contribution to the streetscape adjoining the graveyard and Saint Peter's Church.
