What is recorded here

Detached six-bay two storey barracks, built c.1692, converted to a fever hospital in 1818, a store for coal in c.1858, extended to the south and converted to three houses in c.1890, with a further extension added to the same side in c.1930. The façade is in rubble stone and render with granite Gibbsian dressings to some openings and brick dressings to others. The hipped roof is covered in artificial slate and has a mixture of brick and rendered chimneystacks. The house to the west end utilises one of the original entrances to the building, and this is filled with a panelled timber door. The windows are flat-headed and have replacement timber frames with top-hung openers. The rainwater goods appear to be mainly uPVC. The building is set at the side of a secluded, but crowded, lane.
