Location

History
A probably early C17 house in origin but much altered and extended in the early/mid C19.
Exterior
Rendered over stone rubble with Welsh slate roofs. T-shape plan with a single depth range parallel with the road and a wing projecting forward from the centre. Two storeys. Mostly C19 sash windows but close inspection of the building's features was not available. The projecting wing has a 3 over pane sash on either floor; tripartite sash in wing to right. Plain bargeboarded gable. Steeply pitched roofs with rubble stacks, lateral stack on left wall of front wing, rebuilt gable stack on right wing.
Other details and the rear elevation were not available at resurvey (August 2004).

Reason for designation
