Description
No. 55 Pyecroft Street is a small house built around 1850, showcasing brown Flemish bond brickwork and a grey slate roof in a late Georgian style. The building has two storeys and is double fronted. It features a plain painted plinth, likely made of sandstone, and a four-panel door set in a round-arched opening, which is topped by a fanlight with two radial bars. Each storey has two 16-pane recessed sash windows with painted stone sills and wedge lintels, and the eaves gutter is highlighted by a simple cornice. There are brick chimneys on the roof.
At the rear, there is a three-board door and 12-pane recessed sash windows. The brick-paved walled rear yard includes a coal shed and an exterior toilet, which is wooden boxed and was formerly a privy with an ashpit. Inside, the house features a straight stair, with the right front room above the cellar having a boarded floor and a simple plaster cornice. Other rooms have quarry-tile floors, and there are four-panel doors leading to the principal rooms, along with a broad-board door to the pantry. Small high-level windows in the internal walls provide borrowed light to darker areas.
