Description

21 Latham Street is a small town house built around 1830, with some alterations. It is constructed of red brick in English garden wall bond, featuring sandstone dressings and a slate roof. The house has a double-depth single-fronted plan with a back extension and stands two storeys high over a cellar. The facade has two windows and includes rusticated quoins at the right-hand corner, a plain frieze, and a moulded gutter cornice.

The doorway, located near the vertical junction with No. 20 to the left, is elliptical-headed and has a doorcase supported by engaged Tuscan columns, along with a plain frieze and cornice. The door has been altered, and there is a plain fanlight above it. The windows are sash style without glazing bars, featuring raised sills and wedge lintels, with a cellar window also having a wedge lintel. There are two chimneys on the right-hand return wall, which is rendered and includes a small canted bay window. This bay window has one four-pane sash at the ground floor and two above, along with one other window on each of these floors and a square attic window. The rear and interior of the house were not inspected.
