What is recorded here
Detached three-bay single-storey house, built c.1930, having recent flat-roofed additions to rear (north). Hipped artificial slate roof with rendered timber clad eaves course, rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls having rendered plinth and cast-iron vents. Square-headed window openings having render sills and raised render surrounds throughout. Timber-framed tripartite windows to front elevation, having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. One-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows elsewhere. Square-headed door opening with raised render surround, having replacement glazed timber door with sidelights and overlight having rendered stepped approach.
A well-maintained and well-balanced house situated on a steep rise overlooking agricultural land to the south. The retention of key features, particularly its fine tripartite windows, add to the dwelling's character. It is representative of the simple, modest architectural form of early twentieth century dwellings, and it is increasingly rare to find one which has not been substantially altered.
