What is recorded here

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built in 1902. The building is roughly L-plan with a symmetrical front elevation arranged in the form of two gables. The façade is finished in painted roughcast with a painted render base course and moulded string courses and window surrounds. The overhanging gable-ended pitched roof is slated and has serrated clay ridge tiles and rendered chimneystacks with pronounced corbelling. The front gables are supported on slender brackets. The distinctive entrance consists of a largely glazed segmental-headed door screen set between stylised ‘buttresses’ with moulded archivolt over. The windows are flat-headed and have timber sash frames, eight over one, six over one and four over one. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house is set at the side of a partly tree-lined suburban street, but is surrounded by a large garden enclosed by a hedge with gateway to the east side.
