Detached five-bay single-storey vermacular house, built c.1800, with lobby-entry plan and having windbreak having later canopy to front and flat-roof extension to rear. Hipped straw thatch roof with scolloped ridge painted brick chimneystack. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings with replacement uPVC windows and door. Garden to front with decorative timber gate to rendered boundary wall.
This house with its thatched roof and rendered walls is in the local vernacular tradition, and forms a picturesque element in the streetscape. The streetscape value of the building is reinforced by its corner position, and by the thatched house opposite.
