End-of-terrace three-bay single-storey house with half-dormer attic, c.1900, retaining some early fenestration. Extended, c.1950, comprising single-bay single-storey lean-to return to north-west. Reroofed, c.1975. Refenestrated, pre-1999. One of a terrace of seven. Pitched roof (gabled to half-dormer attic windows) with replacement artificial slate, c.1975, clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stacks, square rooflight, pre-1999, timber bargeboards, and replacement uPVC rainwater goods, pre-1999, on timber eaves. Lean-to corrugated-iron roof to return. Painted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with concrete sills, and replacement aluminium casement windows, pre-1999, retaining one original 2/2 timber sash window to half-dormer attic to rear (north-west) elevation. Square-headed door opening with replacement glazed aluminium door, pre-1999. Set back from road in own grounds with lawns to front, and concrete block boundary wall to perimeter.
A pleasant, small-scale house, built as one of a terrace of seven identical units, which retains most of its original form and massing, but the external expression of which has been undermined by inappropriate renovation works in the late twentieth century. The house, together with the remainder in the terrace (22817057 – 62/WD-27-17-57 – 62), forms an appealing feature in the street scene, conforming to the topography of a sloping site through the use of a stepped roofline articulated by the gabled half-dormer attic windows.
