Description

8 and 9 Ashdowne Place is a mid to later 17th century farmhouse that has been altered into two tenements in the early 19th century. The building is two stories high and constructed of coursed gritstone, with the front rendered and painted. It features a stone slate roof and a very tall rendered stone chimney stack at the west end.

On the first floor, there is one two-light and two four-light square mullioned windows dating from around 1800. The ground floor of No 8 has paired three-light chamfered mullion windows, with the central dividing mullion being larger and set in a chamfered reveal. No 9 has a five-light chamfered mullion window and a two-light window next to the doorway. The doorways have plain squared jambs, and No 8 includes a 19th-century gabled trellis porch.
