What is recorded here

End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey with dormer attic house, built c.1800, having two-storey lean-to extension to side (south-east) elevation. Now also in use as shop. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystacks, eaves course, cast-iron and uPVC rainwater goods and recent rooflights. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls having rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with stone and render sills, having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash windows to first floor. Tripartite timber framed window to ground floor having central two-over-two pane timber sliding sash window flanked by one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Fixed timber framed display window to ground floor. Recessed round-headed door opening having fluted reveals, engaged Doric columns on tooled stone plinths and rendered architrave. Timber panelled door with brass door furniture having limestone stepped approach. Timber battened single-leaf gate inserted in lined-and-ruled rendered wall with limestone stepped approach.
One of a terrace of fifteen houses of varying size and design, apparently built by a Mr Parker and named after his daughter Lucy. This end-of-terrace house is notable for the retention of its timber sliding sash windows and round-headed doorcase. Though the terrace has lost much of its historic fabric, sufficient survives to provide a template for its reinstatement, which would bring the traditional character back to the group and the streetscape.
