Vine House and Chatsley House respectively. These are a pair of Georgian (late 18th century) town houses, built in the locally favoured Flemish bond with contrasting headers. The nearer shows a desire for economy by the original owner by having the central windows blank, thus reducing the amount of window tax http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_tax . Both houses are Listed Grade II.
