What is recorded here
Semi-detached four-bay two-storey house, built c.1860, having full-height canted bay to front (south) elevation and flat-roofed entrance porch and conservatory extension to west elevation. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack, overhanging eaves to gable end with timber eaves brackets and cast-iron rainwater goods. Projecting cornice to entrance porch with dentil course and surmounted by rendered parapet. Roughcast rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with stone sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Round-headed door opening to porch flanked by render pilasters with moulded render archivolt and half-glazed timber panelled door and overlight. Set within its own grounds.
Built as one of a pair, this pair occupies the most elevated position on its site, maximizing the south facing light and views, which are facilitated by its long facade that retains canted bay windows and high ratio of fenestration to walls. The side entrances are located to allow for an uninterrupted south front, and the fine entrance porches are carefully designed and executed. The pair retains many noteworthy features including timber sliding sash windows and render detailing.
