Description
End-of-terrace two-bay three-storey house, c.1770, originally semi-detached with elliptical-headed carriageway to left ground floor, and two-bay three-storey return to north-east. Refenestrated, c.1995. One of a pair. Pitched (shared) slate roofs with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, square rooflight to return, rendered coping, and replacement uPVC rainwater goods, c.1995, on rendered eaves. Unpainted roughcast walls. Square-headed window openings with stone sills. Replacement uPVC casement windows, c.1995. Square-headed door opening with two cut-limestone steps, timber pilaster doorcase, timber panelled door, and open-bed pediment over containing round-headed opening with spoked fanlight. Elliptical-headed carriageway with replacement timber boarded double doors, c.1995. Road fronted with sections of wrought iron railings to front having decorative panels.
Appraisal
A well-proportioned substantial house, built as one of a pair (with 22810005/WD-21-10-05), which retains most of its original form, and which is distinguished by an attractive doorcase of Classical influence together with the presence of a carriageway. However, inappropriate replacement fittings to the openings have not had a positive impact on the external expression of the house. The house, together with the second in the pair, introduces an elegant feature of some formal quality in the streetscape of Main Street.
