[?]2009. Building recording.
This is a single cell house on the ground floor with two or three chambers and a fully floored attic. The projecting gable may have provided more single cell accomodation; the ground floor prehaps being used as a backhouse or a shop. Any evidence of access between the two has been lost through later structural repairs. The combination of the chamfer shops, common joints and the construction of the roof attic seem to indicate a mid-17th century date.
