leaded casement to middle floor, small-paned casement to right;
central square datepanel. Exposed timber framing with row of

infill, some incised decoration in render to left. Central gabled
attic dormer with leaded casement. North side: large leaded
casement to middle floor and timber framed casement row to upper
floor as to west side. Further fragment of decorated render below
middle floor casement. East side: row of timber framed upper
floor casements and blocked attic dormer. C19 brick chimney in
south-east corner. Probably built as weaver's house or houses,
this being indicated by the workshop-type windows on the upper

considerable historic interest.
