Description
Nos. 63 and 63A on Durning Road is a former fire police station built in the 1870s. The building is constructed of ashlar stone and features a hipped slate roof, rising to two storeys with four bays. A panelled band runs along the building, displaying a stone inscription, and the drip mould is terminated by decorative beasts. The ground floor includes two four-centred arched openings, with one being wider than the other, both featuring hood moulds. To the right, there is a six-light window with two king mullions, and an entrance to the left that is sheltered by a continuous hood mould; the upper lights and fanlight are designed as quatrefoils. On the first floor, there are cross windows with hood moulds, and the upper lights again are quatrefoils. The building is topped with two tall stone clustered chimneys, each with attached columns and foliated capitals.
