What is recorded here

Terraced two-bay three-storey house over concealed basement, built c.1680, now in office use. Pitched slate roof set parallel to street with pair of pitched projections set perpendicular to rear. Profiled yellow brick chimneystack with clay pots rising from larger rear projection. Roof hidden behind parapet wall with granite coping and cast-iron hopper and down pipe breaking through to east. Yellow brick walls laid in Flemish bond with lime pointing with lead-lined moulded masonry string course over rusticated rendered ground floor. Gauged brick flat-arch window openings with flush rendered reveals, granite sills and replacement timber sliding sash windows. Iron grilles to ground floor windows. Round-headed door opening with block-and-start limestone surround. Replacement timber door with ten raised-and-fielded panels, lintel cornice and early webbed leaded fanlight. Interior appears to retain original timber stair, original joinery and some nineteenth-century features.
