53,55 AND 57, STOCKWELL GATE

Three houses, dating from the mid-18th century, now used as three shops. The building is constructed of coursed squared stone, partly rendered, with ashlar dressings and concrete tile and plain tile roofs. Features include quoins, chamfered eaves, a gutter supported by brackets, a single brick ridge stack, and capped gable stacks. The building is three storeys high and has a five-window front. The left side features a stone mullioned two-light casement, flanked to the right by a single light casement. Further right are two stone mullioned two-light casements. Above, there are three similar two-light casements, which are boarded up. The ground floor has three late 20th-century shop fronts, set beneath a full-width late 19th-century wooden cornice.
