What is recorded here
Attached two-bay three-storey house, built c.1830, with two-bay two-storey addition to west having dormer attic, c.2000. Garden (south) elevation was principal elevation, house now accessed via rear courtyard. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks and aluminium rainwater goods. Smooth rendered walls with continuous sill courses to main house. Square-headed window openings in moulded render surrounds to east building, with render sills and replacement uPVC windows. Square-headed door opening with uPVC door to north elevation. Former stable building to north, now in use as a house with hipped roof and round-headed window opening having uPVC window. Set back from the street, access via pedestrian gate in rendered wall. Square-headed gate opening flanked by pilasters surmounted by moulded render pediment also covering gate to east neighbouring property.
Although altered in recent years, this former house plays a significant role in maintaining the historic character of this line of large scale houses. Although not built as a composed terrace, each house shares the restrained features of the early nineteenth century architecture. Its siting, commanding a fine view of the south city from an elevated position, is characteristic of this part of the city.
