Description
No. 156 Lord Street is a villa, originally built around 1827, which has since been used as an office and is now restored as a private dwelling. The building features white painted render and a hipped slate roof, showcasing a "Regency" Tudor style. It has a double-depth, double-fronted plan and stands two storeys tall with a two-window range.
The central doorway is adorned with a panelled pilaster architrave that includes a frieze with an Adam-style swag. The door itself is panelled and glazed, flanked by projected canted bay windows. These bay windows have tall Tudor-arched lights with horizontal glazing bars, and all the openings are linked by a moulded cornice. The first floor has square three-light windows, also with Tudor-arched lights, which are now flanked by fixed shutters. There are side-wall chimneys, a service doorway to the left, and a 20th-century extruded inglenook to the right. The interior has not been inspected.
