Description
This is a town house, likely dating to around 1840. The front is constructed of brown brick in a Flemish bond pattern, while the roof is covered with grey slate, with a ridge running parallel to the street. The property is three storeys high. It features a painted stone plinth with a moulded cap. The front door consists of four bolection-moulded panels set within an arched doorcase featuring fluted pilasters. Above the door is a fanlight with two vertical glazing bars, set within an open pediment. Painted stone sills and rusticated wedge lintels with keystones are also present. The windows are recessed sash windows with horns; a tripartite window with a 4-2-4 pane configuration is on the first storey, and there are three 16-pane sashes on each of the upper storeys. A moulded cornice tops the building, and a central chimney is located behind the ridge. The rear of the house is brick and has had most of its features renewed. It includes doors and a flush 16-pane horned sash window on the first storey, two similar 12-pane horned sash windows on the second storey, and one 16-pane window on the third storey. The interior, which was not fully inspected, contains cellars. The front section of the cellars is barrel-vaulted with brick. Other features include doors with six fielded panels, panelled embrasures, a radial-bar fanlight to the back door, and a staircase with shaped brackets and stick balusters. Cornices are also present throughout.
