What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey over basement house, built c.1820, with two-storey return. Formerly used as convent. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls. Some timber sash windows with stone sills. Ashlar limestone porch with pilasters and cornice.
The simple form of this substantial house is enhanced by the limestone porch, which is executed in finely dressed ashlar. The wrought-iron entrance arch which related to the building's former use as a convent is an interesting addition to the streetscape.
