Location

On ground floor, sash window three panes wide to left hand and 4-panelled door with overlight to right hand; two pivot windows, each three panes wide, on first floor. Rear elevation not seen.

Reason for designation
Included as a late C18 house which, despite some alteration, retains special character and has group value with the adjoining The Causeway.
