features of these houses, which although now separate, were once one.

frame sash windows with glazing bars at 1st floor including window above
projection with fine porch at ground floor and window in gable at 2nd

is in original condition, divided into 10 panels by moulded battens, in
heavy moulded frame with enriched stop-chamfer. Original woodcase lock,

timber framed and plastered, 3 windows, mullion transom casements, 3-2-3
