Cliff Hill House Front Block At Number 3

Cliff Hill House, specifically the front block at number 3, is an Italianate villa dating from the third quarter of the 19th century. It is two storeys high and has three wide bays. The roof is low-pitched and covered with slate, featuring deep bracketed eaves soffits and four red brick stacks. The house is constructed of red brick with stone dressings, including a high plinth, a band at first-floor level, lintels, cills, and apron panels below the first-floor windows. The central bay is recessed and features a stone porch with a tetrastyle in antis and a wrought iron railing. Three wide stone steps lead to the porch, which fronts a three-window arcaded first-floor bay. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars or margin lights, with double glazing in the right-hand bay. Matching radial glazing is found in the fanlight above the four-panel front door and in the heads of the flanking windows. A two-storey, two-window wing is attached to the left, mirroring the style.
