Cadw's description
Location
On the main road going north out of Monmouth which rises slowly above the town.
History
Possibly late C17 in origin and refurbished as dated 1755 PJE on plaque. Probably a part of the adjoining The Manson Inn until it closed in c1965. The initials are said to refer to the brother of Philip Endale who opened the inn in the C18.
Exterior
Wholly rendered and painted, probably over rubble stone, with a Welsh slate roof. Single depth central entry plan with a continuous outshut on the rear elevation. Two storeys and attic, two windows. Door not seen. Windows are cross-framed casements in elliptical heads. Central plaque under eaves inscribed 1755 PJE. Fairly steeply pitched roof with stack on gable and on junction with adjoining house.
Left return has a lean-to addition on the gable wall.
Rear elevation has long catslide roof coming low over the single storey outshut. Modern features, two rooflights in attic.
Interior
Interior not seen at resurvey.
Reason for designation
Included for its special architectural interest as one of a pair of small Georgian houses on the outskirts of Monmouth.
