Description

31, 32, and 33 Church Street are three houses built in the mid-18th century. They feature painted incised stucco with painted ashlar dressings and a plinth, topped with a roof of dark asbestos tiles and a renewed brick chimney. The buildings are three storeys high and consist of six bays.

The doors are located in the first bays. No. 31 has a door with three-over-three panels beneath a four-paned overlight in an architrave. No. 32 has two internal steps leading up to a door with diagonal lower panels and four upper panels, set back in a wide architrave with a patterned overlight above. No. 33 has one internal step up to a door with eight panels under a four-paned overlight in a plain reveal.

The ground and first floors of Nos. 31 and 32 feature tripartite sashes with glazing bars, while No. 33 has sashes with glazing bars on the ground floor and margined sashes on the first floor. The second floor has horizontal sliding sashes in the three left bays, a late 19th-century sash to the right of No. 32, and a similar sash in No. 33, all with segmental heads. There is a brick chimney at the right end, and boot scraper recesses are located beside the doors.
