Description

Laurel Bank is a house that has been extended and is now divided into two dwellings. It dates from the mid to late 18th century, with additions and alterations from the 19th century. The building is constructed of deeply-coursed dressed limestone and has a Welsh slate roof. It stands three storeys high and features four windows on the first floor.

The original house has a plinth and large chamfered quoins. The doorway, located to the left of the centre, has a 20th-century part-glazed door within an architrave. To the left of the door is a casement window beneath a flat arch with a keystone. There are two windows to the right of the door, both with lowered sills; the right window is an insertion with a keystone cut into the lintel, and both have ledges over the keystones.

On the first floor, there is a casement window in the first bay, while the other windows are sashes with glazing bars, matching the heads of the ground-floor windows. The second floor features shorter centre-pivoted casements with glazing bars, and there is no inserted window on the right. The building has shaped kneelers and gable copings, with a corniced ashlar stack on the right and a renewed stack on the left.

To the right, there is a single-bay addition that angles out from the facade, which has a door leading to No 33A. This addition features large quoins on the right and a first-floor sash window with glazing bars in a square-faced surround, topped by an embattled parapet. The right return has one bay with a sash window beneath a blind window that has an ashlar surround. The roof is tiled, with a brick ridge stack at the junction with the adjoining property, which is not of special interest.
