Small squared coursed rubble with some large flush greensand quoins, tile roof, probably replacing stone slate. A complex building, difficult to categorise, but with a through passage, in a long narrow block with gabled extensions to left, and a projecting section to the street front, right, now fenestrated, which may once have been a large stack. Two storeys and attic, street front is 1:4:1 windows; at ground floor 2-light with transom, at first floor 2-light casements, with glazing bars, mainly C20; in the projecting 'bay' a 3-light at each level, then, far right a small C20 single light above a recessed doorway with plank door to overlight in segmental opening, on 3 steps. Off-centre left is C20 porch covering good flush 6-panel door, and far left is C20 six-panel door to overlight under a 2-light window. This end bay is slightly stepped forward, and at an angle to the remainder. The left return, to No 1, has various openings, and a gabled wing. Back is 2+3 windows, all C20 casements and large French window, a large brick gable, and one dormer window. Interior of No 2 inspected; includes C16 moulded and stopped beam to through passage area, and a section of roofing with pegged A-frame to 2 chamfered and stopped purlins, and wind bracing.
