What is recorded here

Detached irregular-plan single- and two-storey former Quaker meeting house, built c. 1830, now in use as healthcare offices. Pitched and hipped slate roofs having rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Exposed ashlar and sandstone walls with brick dressings to openings. Timber sliding sash windows and replacement casement windows, having cast-iron railings. Flight of stone steps leading to entrance door with wrought-iron railings.
This former Quaker meeting house forms part of a significant group with the related building to the west. Built in the first part of the nineteenth century, these buildings are notable reminders of the religious diversity of the city at that time. The building is executed in ashlar sandstone, limestone and red brick and these materials add colour and textural interest to the building. The building is enhanced by the retention of notable features and materials, such as the timber sliding sash, slate roof, wrought-iron railings and stone steps.
