house

Terraced two-bay two-storey house with dormer attic, c.1900. One of a pair. Pitched (shared) artificial slate roof with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, rooflight, post-1996, and iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves having iron ties. Rendered, ruled and lined walls with rendered channelled pier to end. Square-headed window openings with cut-stone sills, moulded rendered surround to ground floor, and one-over-one timber sash windows. Elliptical-headed door opening with padstones supporting moulded rendered surround, and replacement timber panelled door, pre-1996, having overlight. Interior with timber panelled reveals or shutters to window openings. Street fronted with concrete footpath to front.

A pleasant house of modest size built as one of a pair (second in pair not included in survey) contributing significantly to the streetscape quality of William Street with attributes establishing an amiable design programme including the staggered composition pattern, the rendered accents producing an appealing Classical theme at street level, and so on. Having been well maintained, the house continues to present an early aspect with the original fabric surviving largely intact, both to the exterior and to the interior, thereby upholding some of the character or integrity of the collective ensemble in the street scene.
