Description
60, 62, and 64 Hague Street is a late 17th-century laithe house and outbuilding that has been converted into three houses, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of narrow coursed millstone grit with tooled ashlar dressings and features a stone slate roof with three ridge stacks, two of which are now rendered.
The layout includes No. 62, which has a central entrance leading into two units, a later outshut for services at the rear, and a former outbuilding to the left that was raised in the 19th century and converted into No. 64 in the late 20th century. No. 60 is to the right, featuring a single-depth range that fronts the road and an earlier rear wing.
The exterior is two storeys high, with quoins on the left side. No. 60 has a rendered façade with incised lines, and the street front displays five windows arranged in a pattern of 1:2:2. No. 60 has a single doorway and a 20th-century casement window to the right, above two casements, with the left one being narrow. No. 62, in the center, features a central doorway under a heavy stone lintel with tooled jambs, flanked by three-light mullioned windows, with the left window under a renewed lintel. Above, there are two former three-light windows with the mullions removed. No. 64, to the left, has two two-light windows, with two more above and a single-storey extension to the left that contains two blocked doorways, one of which now has a window. The left return has scattered openings leading to a massive outshut, while the right return features a small single four-pane sash window on the ground floor.
The rear wing, dating from the late 17th century, has massive quoining at the ends, with a single four-light chamfered mullioned window on each floor, both with hoodmoulds over the gable end.
Inside No. 62, original spine beams are retained on the ground floor, along with some original doors, including a three-planked kitchen door hung on gudgeon pins. There is a spice cupboard in the wall to the left of the fireplace in the principal room, and the stair position has been altered. The roof is reputed to have purlins resting on the side walls. The former outbuilding, now No. 64, features king posts with struts and a 19th-century Jacobs Ladder. No. 62 originally had a datestone inscribed with RMS 1757.
