Description
No. 42 Old Elvet is a house, now used as offices, dating from the early to mid-18th century. It is constructed of painted brick and features a Welsh slate roof with brick chimneys. The building has three storeys and two wide, irregular bays. The entrance consists of a six-panel door set within an architrave that includes side pilasters, a bracketed cornice, and a pediment. To the right, there is a full-height canted bay, while the left side has two windows on the lower floors and a tripartite window above, all of which are early 20th-century sash windows set in boxes with stone cills. The building also has a late 19th-century bracketed eaves cornice and a high-pitched roof with swept eaves, featuring rebuilt chimneys at the right end on both sides of the ridge.
The interior is reported to have a closed-string staircase with a ramped handrail and turned balusters.
