What is recorded here
Terraced three-bay two-storey house, built c.1890, with single-bay set within single-storey building to west. Fronting directly onto street. Pitched slate roof with terracotta ridge tiles, rendered chimneystacks with terracotta pots and some cast-iron rainwater goods. Roughcast rendered walls with smooth rendered plinth, channelled quoins, dentil eaves course and dentil string course to first floor. Square-headed window openings with timber sash windows having margin lights and stone sills. Segmental-headed window opening to central bay of first floor with timber sash window having margin lights and stone sill. Square-headed door opening with replacement glazed timber door and overlight.
Number 3 Pound Street is a modest terraced house. The attention to detailing seen in its various render treatments, string course and eaves course, marks it out, however, as a structure with architectural merit. The timber sash windows retain their margin lights and the segmental-headed window opening over the entrance door is a detail which elevates this structure from the more modest houses within its vicinity.
