Description
Detached one and a half storey building, similar in design to 14 Upper Street and constructed by
the same developer. Buildings date from the early C20. Situated slightly back within its plot but
above the height of the road. The building sits beneath a gabled roof, laid in clay tiles. Central
chimney stack and centrally positioned gabled dormer breaking the eaves line. Building is rendered
and painted with applied timber framing to first floor. Two windows positioned centrally within the
dormer and two bay windows with clay tile roofs to ground floor. Small single storey lean-to to left
hand (facing ) gable. Despite being set back from the carriageway, this building is visually
prominent, due to its elevated position, its rendered and applied timber principle elevation and its
central window and dormer. Despite later alterations the building retains its original form, scale,
massing and much of its character and is a visually attractive example of an early C20 building
within the village. Local Heritage Asset in conservation area (1).
