Description

Number 14 and the railings attached to Number 5 King's Staith are two houses from the mid-19th century, with later alterations. They are built of orange brick in Flemish bond, painted on the ground floor, and sit on an ashlar plinth. The timber features include doorcases, a moulded eaves frieze, and a modillion cornice that terminates in grooved consoles. The buildings have a slate roof with brick stacks and cast-iron railings on a stone plinth.

On the King Street front, the buildings are three storeys high with four windows. To the right of the central entrance, there is a four-panel door beneath a divided overlight, framed by a doorcase with pilasters, an entablature, moulded imposts, and a bold cornice. At the far left, there is a rear passage door beneath a divided overlight, and the original window to the right has been altered to a glazed door. The main entrance is flanked by four-pane sashes with louvred shutters, while the first and second floors feature 12-pane sash windows, all with cambered heads. Except for the main entrance, all openings have flat arches made of gauged brick. The ground floor windows have a raised painted stone sill band, the first floor has a painted moulded band, and the second floor windows have painted stone sills.

On the King's Staith front, the buildings are also three storeys high, raised on a high plinth, and have three windows. A flight of steps leads up to the central entrance, which is similar to the entrance on King Street. All windows are four-pane sashes with cambered heads and flat arches of gauged brick, with a small inserted window to the right of the first-floor centre window. The detailing on this front repeats that of the King Street front.

The interior has not been inspected. The subsidiary features include turned spearhead railings with mace-head standards attached to the front steps and returning along the front of the house.
