Old tile roof, flanking brick chimneys 2 storeys and attic, 3 bays. Leaded casements, 3-light flanking 2-light. Hipped dormers with similar 2-light casements and moulded cornices. Right side had 6-panelled door and small casement in gable end, one bay of 4-light leaded windows and similar 2-light over board door with segmental head to right. Royal Exchange fire insurance plaque to centre front. Interior has large fireplace in front right-hand room with cast iron fireback dated 1608, probably from older house (B1).
The assessment determined that the proposed development will not have an impact on any designated or undesignated archaeological assets. The assessment also considered the potential of the site to contain as yet undiscovered assets, and although discussions with the Buckinghamshire archaeological Officer have highlighted the potential of the site for Saxon and Medieval evidence, the proposed development of the backlands of no.11 appears unlikely to encounter evidence from these periods (B2).
