Description
Number 6 is a town house that has been converted into an insurance office. It was built in the mid-18th century and underwent significant alterations around 1975. The building is constructed of dark red-brown Flemish bond brick with painted stone dressings.
The exterior features cellars, two storeys, and an attic, with a symmetrical five-window front. There is a five-course rusticated stone plinth and eleven stone steps with rusticated curved sidewalls leading to an oak door that has six fielded panels, set within a Corinthian case with fluted pilasters. Above the door is an overlight with looped radial-bar glazing and a modillion pediment. On either side of the entrance are two flush twelve-pane sash windows. The corners of the building are accentuated by Corinthian pilasters that are fluted at the front, and there is a band at the first floor level. The first floor has five flush twelve-pane sashes, with the sash above the door featuring a substantial stone architrave, and all windows have painted stone sills with gauged brick flat arches.
The left side of the building has two recessed sashes in altered openings on each floor, with twelve panes on the first and second floors and six panes in the attic. The right side is built against another structure. At the rear, the original building's corners project on either side of a 20th-century rear wing. The left corner has a recessed twelve-pane sash on both the ground and first floors, with a modern window inserted in the attic. The right corner features a replaced door and a round-arched twelve-pane stair sash.
Inside, the interior has been altered, and most of the original materials have been removed. The building also includes subsidiary features such as a raised pavement with a curved stone kerb and cast-iron bollards on either side of the steps.
