End-of-terrace single-bay two-storey over basement house, c.1800. Reroofed, c.1950. One of a group of three. Pitched (shared) roof with replacement artificial slate, c.1950, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted roughcast wall to front (north) elevation with unpainted rendered walls to remainder. Square-headed window openings (in bipartite arrangement to first floor) with cut-stone sills, and six-over-six timber sash windows. Round-headed door opening with remains of cast-iron bootscraper, two cut-limestone steps, and timber panelled door having fanlight. Interior with timber panelled shutters to window openings. Road fronted with concrete brick cobbled footpath to front incorporating wrought iron grille to basement having cut-limestone surround.
An appealing modest-scale house built as one of a group of three houses (with 12000109 - 10/KK-4766-09-109 - 10) identified in the streetscape on account of distinguishing attributes including a bipartite window opening recalling a feature characteristic of the locality commonly known as the "Kilkenny Window". Having been well maintained the house presents an early aspect with most of the historic fabric intact both to the exterior and to the interior, thereby enhancing the visual appeal of the street scene in Chapel Lane.
