What is recorded here

Detached five-bay single-storey U-plan house over half basement with attic, built c.1780, having four-bay returns. Hipped slate roof, gabled to returns, with render chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings with replacement timber windows with cut limestone sills. Timber panelled door with cobweb fanlight set in round-headed opening. Replacement concrete steps leading to entrance. Outbuilding to west having hipped slate roof and rubble limestone walls.
Set over a half basement this deceptively modest house retains much of its original form. Though extended to the rear, the U-plan form of the house remains apparent. The scale, rhythm and round-headed door opening are typical features of Georgian architecture.

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