17-23, MANOR PLACE

Nos. 17 to 23 Manor Place is a terrace of four houses built around 1856 for James and George Wilson. The houses are constructed of brick and feature a hipped slate roof. They are two storeys high and consist of eight bays. The windows have cut-brick flat arches and are sashed with glazing bars, although the windows in the second and seventh bays on the ground floor are blind. The central entrances are paired Tudor-head style with 20th-century doors, and there are entrances to the returns. The terrace has two cross-axial stacks and a continuous outshut at the rear. This building is part of a planned village for Price's Patent Candle Company, which is one of the earliest examples of a model industrial village.
