Pair of substantial town houses constructed in the early C19.

Pair of houses, each 3-storey, 3-window, stucco fronted with slate roofs and rendered stacks. No 1 (Buckingham House) to right, has 6-pane attic windows, 12-pane first floor sashes, the lower half of each sash replaced in plate glass and ground floor pair of late C19 canted bay windows with lean-to slate roof between. Centre door and overlight. Rubble stone rear with 2-storey lean-to rear range and NE rear wing with big stone end stack. This house has scarfed cruck roof trusses indicating a date of c1800 or earlier, but may be a late example of the type.
