An attractive, small-scale house, possibly incorporating fabric of an earlier house on site as indicated on the first edition of the Ordnance Survey. The house incorporates distinctive architectural features typical of the period of construction, including an elegant canted bay window, although most of the historic patina has been eroded by over-zealous restoration works in the late twentieth century.
