Description
Numbers 2 and 3, known as Duke of Cleveland's House, is a house that now serves as a Conservative Club. It dates from the late 17th century and features early 19th-century extensions along with a late 20th-century porch. The building is constructed from dressed limestone, with the upper three courses renewed, and has brick extensions that are rendered and stuccoed. The roofs are covered with Welsh slate and have stone gable copings.
The house is two storeys high and has four bays on No. 2. It features renewed sash windows with glazing bars, stone lintels, and sills. The windows have chamfered quoins, and there are two end stacks. The left extension is set back and includes a lean-to porch at the angle. The easternmost extension, No. 3, has a side that faces Church Walk and includes an external stack with offsets, as well as a mid-20th-century casement window set in a late 19th-century opening cut through the right-hand part of the stack. There is also a doorway cut through the middle of the stack.
The east garden front of the extension has a half-octagonal plan with three windows on each floor and a hipped shallow-pitched roof. The south garden front features two windows on each floor. The ground-floor windows of the extension are mid-20th-century fixed lights, while the first-floor windows are late 19th-century sashes, all in their original openings.
Inside, the right-hand ground-floor room of No. 2 has full-height bolection-moulded and fielded timber panelling from around 1700, which includes a dado and cornice, along with six-panelled doors, window seats, folding shutters, and a fixed display cupboard with a half-glazed door featuring a semi-circular head. There is also a panelled overmantel above a late 19th-century iron-framed grate with a hood and glazed tile surround. The ballroom on the first floor of No. 3 has a moulded ceiling cornice and architraves around the doorways and niches. The late 19th-century and late 20th-century extensions on the south sides are not of interest.
