The property provides a utility room, kitchen with Rayburn cooker, a dining room and lounge at ground floor level, with two double bedrooms, landing and bathroom at first floor.

Externally there is an enclosed yard/garden area with decking and timber-built garage/workshop.

Foundry Annex: Sits between Foundry House and the Reception Office and is accessed via a passageway leading through to a small enclosed courtyard to the rear. The accommodation comprises a kitchen/diner and separate lounge on the ground floor with one bedroom and bathroom at first floor level.

The Units benefit from a concrete loading forecourt with petrol interceptors installed, and additional parking to the side.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
