Description
No. 14 King Street is a small town house dating from the late 18th century, with a front that was restored in the 1970s. The building is constructed of brown brick in Flemish bond and features a grey slate roof that is hipped at the front, with the ridge running at right angles to the street. It has three storeys and consists of one bay.
The front has a rendered stone plinth with a moulded cap and two covered steps leading to a door made up of six fielded panels, set within a pedimented shouldered architrave that includes an overlight with four panes. The windows have painted stone sills and rusticated wedge lintels with dropped keystones. The first storey has a nearly flush horned four-pane sash window, while the second storey features a casement with three three-pane lights and a sillband. The third storey has a nearly flush sixteen-pane sash window. A moulded cornice runs beneath an eight-course parapet that has plain stone coping.
At the rear, the gable-end is rendered, although many features have been replaced. There is a door with a plain overlight and nearly flush six-pane horned sash windows—one on the first storey and two each on the second and third storeys. The verge is flush, and there are two chimneys on the west side. The interior has not been inspected.
