Full Description

PRN 37179 This house is of 17th century origin but was converted to 19th century Gothic in 1854. It is built of rendered stone and has two stone bays with mullioned windows. For the full description and the legal address of this listed building please refer to the appropriate List of Buildings of Special Architectural or Historic Interest. {1} This stone house dates to the early 17th century and appears to have originally had a hall and cross wing. It has been altered in the 18th and 19th centuries and the interior has good quality early 19th century fittings. The street front has two three storey bay windows which are of 19th century date although they may be replacements for 17th century originals. The doorway and the window above it are 17th century but restored and there are more 17th century windows on the rear elevation. There is an early 19th century kitchen wing to the rear and beyond this is a rubble walled 17th century building of uncertain original use. {2}
