Former house, now used as store and adjoining stable with loft. Mid C17. Ashlar rebuilt in rubble in places; red tile roof. 'L'- shaped plan. 1½ storeys with basement under the house. Flat- chamfered plinth. Twin-gabled entrance front. Three-light hollow- chamfered stone-mullioned casement with stopped hood to the basement, lower left; 4-light stone-mullioned casement with a formerly continuous dripmould and ovolo-moulded mullions and transom above, now blocked; the wall either side of these windows has been rebuilt in coursed squared and dressed limestone. Two- light stone-mullioned casements with hollow-moulded chamfers and stopped hood to the gable. Eight stone steps up to a C20 plank door within an ovolo-moulded surround; cambered lintel pierced by ventilation holes forming a 4-petal flower. A moulded hood runs over the doorway and for some distance either side, was formerly part of a continuous dripmould. Plank door to the right of the steps within a tall opening suggesting the use of this part for stabling blocked with planking at the top. Left gable end: 2-light hollow-chamfered stone-mullioned casement with a stopped hood to the basement to the left of a plank door within a heavy-pegged surround. :Four-light ovolo-moulded stone-mullioned casement with a transom; two of the upper sections of the window retain their leaded panes, continuous dripmould over; 3-light hollow-moulded stone-mullioned casement with stopped hood to the attic, two lights with leaded panes. Rear wall: large blocked opening, possibly formerly a window; projecting stack with stone corbels at the base; shaft removed above eaves level; small lean-to projection to the left. Stable projects forwards to the left: single-width doorway without door inserted in the west-facing wall; pitching window to the gable end; small plank door in the east facing wall. Stepped gable-end coping with roll-cross saddles to both parts. Limited interior inspection: small Tudor-arched fireplace and original beams and roof trusses. The impressive external appearance of this house/stable having ashlar external walls where easily visible contrasts with its size, the house having only a single room on each floor.
