Description

No. 121 Liverpool Road is a small house built in the early to mid-19th century, which has been altered over time. The exterior features cream-painted roughcast with sandstone dressings painted black and a slate roof with stone gable coping. The house has a double-depth, single-fronted layout, including a through-lobby on the right side.

The building stands two low storeys above a basement and has two windows. It includes a painted plinth, regular quoining above the left doorway, a first-floor sill band, and a moulded gutter cornice. The ground floor has a round-headed doorway on the left, accessed by six steps and protected by simple bar railings. This doorway features pilaster jambs, a moulded head with a keystone, set-in columns, a door with six fielded panels, and a plain fanlight. There is a rectangular window in the center with altered glazing and a raised quoined surround that includes a keystone, as well as a blocked basement window below. To the right at ground level, there is a round-headed lobby doorway with a board door and a fanlight with radiating glazing bars.

On the upper floor, there are two rectangular windows with surrounds that match those on the ground floor, also with altered glazing. A tall chimney is built against the higher gable of the adjoining No. 123 on the right. The house forms a group with No. 123 next door. The interior has not been inspected.
