The openings are under segmental heads of stone voussoirs, except for the R-hand bay of 137 and 137B which have cambered stone heads. The windows are 2- or 3-light wooden casements. Rear said to be of painted rubble. 137B is a 1-window cottage, continuous with 137 to the L. Small rendered end stack to R. The entrance is to the L, with segmental head and raised rusticated surround, with inset C20 panelled door.

Interior
