What is recorded here

Roselawn in Gardens is one of seven related houses, with a shared roof and its old front railings still standing. Seven relations under one roof: you’d keep a small fence between yourself and the world too.
Terraced two-bay two-storey house, c.1850. Reroofed and refenestrated. One of a group of seven. Pitched (shared) roof with replacement artificial slate, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, slightly sproketed eaves, and iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Painted roughcast walls with rendered channelled piers to ends. Square-headed window openings with cut-stone sills, and replacement uPVC casement windows. Square-headed door opening with replacement glazed timber panelled door having fanlight. Set back from line of road with sections of iron railings to forecourt on random rubble stone plinth having open work piers with iron gate.
An appealing small-scale house built as one of a group of seven related units (with 12000180 - 2, 4 - 6/KK-4766-09-180 - 2, 4 - 6) lending a modest quality to the streetscape of Dublin Road. Despite renovation works that have led to the loss of much of the historic fabric the original form and massing survive intact, thereby maintaining some of the integrity of the group. The survival of early iron railings to the forecourt further enhances the street presence of the site.
