Scope and Content L-plan thatched bungalow with attic storey, and according to the listing description built circa 1935. The building has two attic dormer windows on the south east (front) elevation and two on the north east elevation. The thatch is netted directly below the raised concrete ridge, for approximately one foot, whilst the rest of the thatched is uncovered. The thatch is in good condition, although perhaps a little untidy in places with a few loose pieces of reed. A tenant of the building believed it had last been thatched in the late 1980s and had recently been advised by the owner that it was due to be re-thatched at some point within the next two years. The building is currently being let to an architecture practice.
