Description
Terraced five-bay three-storey house, built c. 1810, formerly part of twelve-bay three-storey military college. Later in use as school, subsequently subdivided and in use as private houses. Single-bay single-storey pitched-roofed and lean-to additions to rear. Pitched slate roof with red brick and rendered chimneystacks and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls with render plinth course. Square-headed window openings with one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows, render reveals and painted stone sills. Some square-headed openings to rear having replacement uPVC windows. Camber-headed door opening to front elevation with render reveal, timber panelled door and overlight.
Appraisal
This building formed part of a larger composition until its subdivision in the early twentieth century. Formerly a purpose-built military college, the tall and narrow form of the building, dense fenestration and siting combine to create a building of distinct and unusual character.
