Grade II. House. Early C18. Chequer brick, first floor band course, moulded brick eaves.

Cross casements with C19-C20 glazing, painted blind single lights to first floor between bays, 4-panelled door between left bays with rectangular fanlight. All ground floor openings have rendered voussoir heads with keyblocks (B1).
AVDC Conservation team note that the rear wall incorporates C17 timber frame trusses, made up of salvaged timbers including a beam with a strapwork frieze. 1st floor RH room has a stone fireplace with 4-centred arch and moulded and stopped jambs. The fireplace is painted, so it is difficult to date (B2).
