46, North Bailey

No. 46 North Bailey is a house from the early 17th century, now serving as a university department. It is constructed of English garden wall bond brick with varying numbers of courses and features a painted ashlar plinth. The building has three storeys and attics, with four windows. There is an open yard entrance on the right, framed by an architrave under a pointed hood, leading to a six-panel wooden door in an adjacent architrave. The windows have flat brick arches and sashes with glazing bars, with those on the top floor flush with the wall. The building also has deep moulded brick floor strings and square-headed dormers with rendered cheeks, which contain sashes with glazing bars. A brick chimney is located at the right end.

Inside, there is a wide open-well staircase featuring a low-moulded ramped handrail supported by two turned balusters per tread, with shaped tread ends and a wide-swept wreath and curtail. The doors are either six- or eight-panel designs set in deep reveals with lugged architraves.
