What is recorded here

Detached two-bay one and a half-storey built c.1890 as the caretakers house for the neighbouring parish hall, now in use as a private dwelling. The building is now in use as a private house. It is constructed of red brick. The front door is sheeted and an over run of the main roof, which is supported on brackets, acts as a porch roof. Window openings are segmental arch headed with timber casement frames. There is a single gabled dormer with mock half timber framing and a flat-headed timber casement window. The pitched roof is finished with natural slate and cast-iron rainwater goods. The chimneystack is brick with a corbelled cap and tall clay pots. The house faces the road and is slightly set back behind a large hedge; it shares the site with the former parochial hall.
The historic setting of this modest house is complimented by the adjoining former parochial hall. It is well preserved and contributes to the rhythm of the streetscape.

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