What is recorded here

One of a pair of semi-detached three-bay two-storey over basement house, built c.1820. Set back from street. Pitched slate roof with smooth rendered chimneystacks and terracotta pots. Pebbledashed façade, smooth rendered gable and roughcast rendered rear elevation. Timber sash windows with stone sills. Timber casement windows to basement. Segmental-headed door opening within coved stucco surround having timber spoked fanlight and timber doorcase comprising engaged fluted Doric columns, flanking timber panelled door and sidelights. Limestone steps to door. Wrought- and cast-iron railings surmounted on rendered wall with stone coping to front site. Outbuildings to rear site.

This is one of a pair of houses whose modest, symmetrical design is a splendid addition to the streetscape of Emmet Street. The finely crafted decorative doorcase is particularly noteworthy with its fluted Doric engaged columns, decorative sidelights and simple, yet striking, fanlight. The symmetrical design of the house is heightened by its doorcase and surrounding railings which complete the site.
