Pitched roof with replacement artificial slate, 1992, clay ridge tiles and replacement uPVC rainwater goods, 1992. Painted replacement cement rendered walls, 1992, with rendered stringcourse to first floor. Square-headed window openings with rendered sills. Replacement uPVC casement windows, 1992. Round-headed door opening with timber fluted doorcase having open-bed pediment over, channelled reveals, and replacement timber panelled door, 1992, with decorative overlight having rendered surround.
