What is recorded here
Semi-detached two-bay three-storey house, built c.1820, with lower double-pile single-bay two-storey wing and flat-roofed extension to west elevation and glazed flat-roofed porch extension to front (south) elevation. Hipped slate roof with rendered chimneystack and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with stone sills, six-over-three pane timber sliding sash windows to rear (north) elevation and uPVC windows to front (south) elevation. Door opening not visible. Outbuilding to rear (north) of site with pitched artificial slate roof, rendered walls and roller garage door. Set within its own grounds.
A pair of houses, which in common with contemporary houses in this prosperous suburb, was orientated to the south to maximize light and views over the River Lee. It retains noteworthy features including timber sliding sash windows and some interior fittings. The street entrance, set in a blank wall, is a feature that is repeated along Sunday’s Well Road, allowing for privacy to the streetfront and creating a sense of exclusion from the outside world for the residents within.
This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
