What is recorded here

End-of-terrace two-bay two-storey over basement house, built c.1865 and now in use as a newspaper office. To front there is a single-storey over basement square, flat-roofed bay. The front façade is finished in brick with a decorative eaves course, with the north façade finished in unpainted render. The hipped roof is slated and has a rendered chimneystack. The entrance, which is reached via a flight of stone steps with a rendered guardrail, and is set within a recessed porch with segmental-headed opening with three-quarter colonette ‘jambs’ with decorative capitals, consists of a panelled timber door with segmental-headed fanlight. The bay has a large flat-headed three-light mullioned window with decorative ‘capitals’ to the mullions and one over one timber sash frames. The other windows are also flat-headed with two over two timber sash frames and granite sills. One of the basement windows has been converted to a doorway and has a timber door with large sidelights. There is a large signboard under the ground floor window. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house fronts onto a street but is separated from it by a garden enclosed by cast-iron railings with brick and granite piers, and a wrought-iron gate.
