What is recorded here
Hill Side in Newtown has projecting bay windows downstairs and a three-part window above the middle. That’s a grand arrangement for watching someone arrive, decide you’re out, and leave, all while you remain technically unavailable.
Detached three-bay two-storey house, built in 1939, having bay windows to front (east) elevation. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystacks. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed openings to first floor and bay windows having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and concrete sills. Square-headed opening to first floor, centre-bay with tripartite one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows and concrete sill. Square-headed opening having replacement uPVC overlight and door. Pair of square-profile rendered piers to east with rendered walls.
This modest house is enhanced by the simple proportions with timber sash windows to the upper floor and bay windows to ground floor. The building retains its slate roof and timber sash windows, which help to preserve its original appearance.
