Silverhill, Sidmonton Road

Detached three-bay two-storey house, built c.1865. The house is finished in lined render and moulded quoins. The panelled door is framed with panelled pilasters with console brackets which support a projecting cornice; above is a plain fanlight and all is set within a semi-circular headed opening. The window openings are all flat-headed and have broad moulded surrounds; those to ground floor are surmounted by a projecting cornice supported by console brackets; frames are two over two timber sash. The hipped roof is finished with slate and cast-iron rainwater goods; the eaves are bracketed and rendered chimneystacks have corbelled caps with mixed clay pots. The house is well set back behind a low rubble granite wall with prominent square brick gate pillars and carved stone caps; decorative gates are fabricated in wrought-iron.

This is a well preserved and original house whose proportions add much to the 19th-century heritage of the general area and the streetscape in particular.
