Appraisal
Positioned on a rise in ground level overlooking the surrounding farmland, the front façade of this house is distinguished by the unusual projecting central bay. It is likely that the ground floor was originally three-bay, with additional windows added at a later date. The retention of features such as the slate roof and paired sash windows helps to conserve the original character of the building.
