Description
End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey house, c.1850, on a corner site with single-bay two-storey lean-to lower return to south-west. Extensively renovated, c.1975. One of a pair. Hipped (shared) roof (continuing into lean-to to return) with replacement artificial slate, c.1975, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, and cast-iron rainwater goods on overhanging eaves. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with stone sills, and replacement timber casement windows, c.1975. Round-headed door opening with moulded rendered surround, timber panelled door, and overlight. Road fronted on a corner site with concrete footpath to front.
Appraisal
An elegantly-proportioned modest-scale house, built as one of a pair (with 22816158/WD-26-16-158), which retains most of its original form and massing. However, the replacement fittings to the window openings do not enhance the visual appeal of the site. The house, together with the second in the pair, remains an integral component of the streetscape, and contributes to the character of The Square.
