Description

Nos. 88, 90, and 92 Buxton Road are three houses built in 1871 as part of the Fence Almshouse development. They are constructed of brick with half-timbering and feature a stone-flagged roof. Nos. 90 and 92 face Buxton Road and are designed as a pair of single-room, double-pile houses. Each has outer doorways and squared bay windows with lean-to roofs that extend as porches over the entrances, with 4-pane sash windows above. There is a passage entrance to the right. No. 88 has a chamfered angle with paired 4-pane sash windows set in a stone architrave, and a dentilled sill band that continues as a string course. The return elevation features a half-hipped timber porch with an oriel window above in a high gable that projects above the roofline. There is a 4-pane sash window on each floor to the right, beneath a small timbered gablet. The houses have axial stacks.
