GV II

Includes: No.8 GRIMSHAW STREET. Four town houses in terraced row lining west side of street, with return to Grimshaw Street (No.8); now variously integrated as offices. Probably 1849; altered. Coursed squared sandstone, slate roof hipped at the corner to the left. Double-depth plan, each house single-fronted except No.13 which appears to have been double-fronted. 3 storeys over cellars, 1+2+1+1 windows; doorways of Nos 11 & 13 to the right (now altered as windows), doorway of No.13A in the centre, and another doorway to the left, all with plain jambs and lintels, and shallow moulded cornices; cellar windows blocked with glass bricks; all other windows with plain surrounds and altered glazing. No.8 Grimshaw Street, which is the returned end to the south, a single-window facade, is similar but has sillbands to the upper floors, a doorway to the left with pilaster jambs, frieze, cornice and remains of a pedimental blocking course, and a recessed panelled door up 2 steps, and an altered (now coupled) window at ground floor. INTERIORS not inspected. Forms a group with the latter, and with Nos 5, 7 & 9 Nicholas Street (qv), the whole being a good example of "late Georgian" town housing.
