It may be the house with eaves-breaking upper windows shown in early C19 Charles Norris view of the medieval North Gate. Marked on c. 1865 map. In 1981 it had a roof of cemented slates. Identified as Dick Williams' house and smithy in caption to early C20 photograph.

Renewed four-panelled door with the top two panels arched. Left end wall has small sash window to right on first floor. Stone rebuilt lean-to to ground floor left with pantiled roof continuous with rear one-storey former smithy, much rebuilt in C20, the stone now partly facing to blockwork. Broad door with broad square window each side, all with new timber lintels. Small red brick wall-face stack to right, narrow door to extreme left.
