Full Description

A house of late 17th century date with 19th century alterations. It is constructed in limestone with ashlar quoins and dressings, and has a pantile roof with raised stone coped gables, ball finials, and an off centre ridge chimney stack of brick with a stone base. The house is on two storeys, divided into four 4 bays with an off centre door. The windows in the façade are mullioned, with iron frame casements. Above the door there is a 19th century Brownlow shield and scroll in a plain stone surround. The streetside gable has a blocked sixteenth century opening at first floor level and a slate plaque (probably early 19th century) with paired lions, a greyhound and a coronet of the Brownlow arms in each corner. The latter was a gauge for a large water tank previously housed in the roof and which served a number of other houses in the village. The interior has an inglenook fireplace, with an original salt cupboard and pot hangers.
