What is recorded here

Detached eight-bay single-storey house, built c.1840. The house is finished in roughcast render. The panelled timber door has plain sidelights and a fanlight with small coloured panes; it is set within a flat-headed opening with a c.1880s Ionic doorcase with a small pediment. To the south side there is a c.1880s canted single-storey bay. Window openings are flat-headed with one over one timber sash frames. The hipped roof is finished with natural slate and cast-iron rainwater goods; it has overhanging bracketed eaves. The house is well set back within a large garden. To the west side there is a range of outbuildings.
Although this asymmetrical house was somewhat altered in the later 19th century it still retains much of its original character. It blends well with its surroundings.
