Description
No. 137 Liverpool Road is a villa, which later served as an annex to a school but was unoccupied at the time of the survey and had been subject to vandalism, with openings boarded in July 1995. The building is likely from the mid-19th century and has been altered. It features cream-painted roughcast render with sandstone dressings painted white and a hipped slate roof, designed in a classical style with a double-depth, double-fronted plan.
The exterior is two storeys high and has three windows, arranged almost symmetrically. It includes a moulded plinth, rusticated quoins, a moulded sill band on the first floor, a string course above the first floor, and a moulded gutter cornice. The ground floor has a large rectangular porch supported by Tuscan pilasters, featuring a plain frieze and moulded cornice with a blocking course. The porch contains a round-headed doorway with imposts and a keystone, a panelled door with a plain overlight, and a round-headed window on the side with a keyed architrave. To the left is a 4-pane sash window with a raised sill and moulded architrave, while to the right are a pair of sashes without glazing bars, both with similar architraves and a continuous moulded sill.
On the first floor, there is a central 4-pane sash with a pulvinated frieze and moulded cornice, flanked by segmental-headed sashes with shouldered architraves and triple keystones. The roof features three semi-circular attic dormers. The left return wall has a wide canted bay window for the front room, with segmental-headed sashes, and a segmental-headed sash above. There are also blocked 1-light windows on each floor in the centre, and towards the rear, a raised bay with a round-headed doorway at ground floor and a round-headed window above, both of which are blocked. The rear has a doorway and a window partly covered by a 20th-century link near the east corner, along with three other windows at ground floor and four 4-pane sashes above, all with moulded architraves. The interior was not inspected.
