14, Henry Street

No. 14 Henry Street is a cottage, likely dating from the later 18th century, and subsequently altered. It is built with white-painted render on cobble, and has a slate roof. The cottage has a single-depth, two-unit plan, and is one-and-a-half storeys high with two windows. A gabled porch is positioned at the right-hand end, featuring a doorway with a stone surround and hoodmould, and small six-pane windows either side, also with hoodmoulds. The porch roof has projecting eaves and verges. The main part of the cottage has two three-light mullioned windows on each floor, with the upper windows set within dormers. A gable chimney is located in line with the porch. Inside, both rooms have small, chamfered ceiling beams. This is one of the few surviving pre-industrial dwellings in Lytham, likely originally a fisherman's cottage. The building forms a group with numbers 16 and 18 to the right, and with numbers 13 and 15 opposite.
