house

Terraced single-bay single-storey local authority house with half-dormer attic, built 1899, retaining most original fenestration. Part refenestrated, c.2000. One of a group of twenty-six arranged in two terraces of thirteen. Pitched (shared) slate roof (gabled to half-dormer attic window) with clay ridge tiles, red brick (shared) chimney stack, timber bargeboards, and cast-iron rainwater goods on timber eaves. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings (in bipartite arrangement to ground floor) with rendered sills. 1/1 timber sash windows with replacement timber casement window, c.2000, to half-dormer attic. Square-headed door opening with tongue-and-groove timber panelled door. Road fronted with concrete footpath to front.

This house, built as one of a terrace of twenty-six identical units, is an attractive, small-scale building that retains its original form and character, together with important original salient features and materials. The house, together with the remainder of the terrace (22501564/WD-5632-21-582), is of significance as an example of local authority-sponsored housing in the locality, and contributes to an attractive low-lying streetscape.
