house

End-of-terrace three-bay single-storey house, built c.1820. Fronts directly onto street. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, red brick chimneystack and cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast render to walls with smooth render to plinth. Replacement timber casement windows with red brick surrounds and painted sills. Square-headed door opening with red brick surrounds, pitched slate canopy with timber bargeboards and finial, supported on timber brackets with replacement glazed timber door and tooled limestone threshold.

Situated directly on Compton Row, this charming cottage, though small in stature, retains some notable architectural features. Red brick surrounds to each opening and the finely carved bargeboards add colour and texture to the house's exterior. Built as part of a larger scheme this cottage is integral to the terrace and makes a positive contribution to a changing streetscape. Although one of the houses has a date plaque stating 'Comptons Row. 1820', these houses have the appearance of houses dating from the 1880s and may have been renovated at that time.
