Description

Terraced three-bay two-storey over basement red brick house, built c. 1895, with an oriel window, a front railed basement area. Pitched natural slate roof with black ridge tiles, a shared red brick chimneystack to both party walls with clay pots and uPVC rainwater goods. Red brick walls to front, laid in English garden wall bond. Gauged brick camber-arched window openings with limestone sills and replacement uPVC windows, except the basement having two-over-two timber sash windows with iron bars. Three-sided canted timber oriel window to ground floor with a hipped zinc roof and replacement uPVC windows, continuous uPVC sill and moulded corbelled out base. Gauged brick camber-arched door opening with a label moulding and stone stops. Replacement timber-panelled door with brass furniture and rectangular overlight. Door opens onto concrete platform with cast-iron bootscraper and five concrete steps. Steps flanked by simple wrought-iron railings on painted plinth course enclosing basement area.

Appraisal

Despite the inappropriate window replacements, most of the other external features remain intact. The original façade composition has been maintained and forms an important part of the terrace on this Square of varied architectural styles.
