Plan: Originally a pair of 1-room plan cottages, heated from gable end stacks and with adjoining entrances at the centre to passages with stair- cases at the back against the party wall. In circa early to mid C19 a single storey outbuilding was built at the left hand end. In circa late C19 or early C20 the pair of cottages was converted into one house by the removal of the left hand staircase making the left hand room larger.

The single storey outbuilding on the left end has 2 fixed-light windows, one of 6 panes, the other 2 panes, and a doorway between with a C20 plank door. The right hand gable end of the house has a C20 2-light casement with glaz- ing bars. The rear wall of the house is built into a steep bank behind the house. Interior was only partially inspected. The right hand room has a plastered ceiling and a simple moulded chimneypiece with a cornice and blue and white Delft tiles. The larger left hand room has exposed ceiling beams. The central passage has a horizontal boarded partition on the right hand side and panelled doors. A straight staircase at the back of the stairs.
