32, Church Street

No. 32 Church Street is a house with an early 18th-century core that was refronted in the late 18th to early 19th century. It is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond on a red sandstone plinth, topped with a plain tile roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, featuring two windows on each floor. There is an elongated wing at the rear left and a lean-to against the rear right.

The doorway, located to the right of centre, has a late 19th-century six-panel door set in a wooden doorcase with sunken-panelled jambs and a flat hood supported by corbelled blocks. Above the left jamb, there is a straight joint in the brickwork. The windows, which are 16-pane sashes (currently boarded over), have projecting sills and rubbed-brick cambered arches. The windows to the right of the door have been distorted due to subsidence. The house features dentilled eaves, brick coping on the left gable, and end stacks.

On the left return, the first bay of the wing rises to three storeys and includes a three-light horizontally-sliding sash window on the top floor, while the rest of the wing is lower and has a tall central ridge stack. Inside, there is an incomplete stick-baluster staircase. The first-floor room at the front left has oak floorboards and an oak transverse beam with chamfer stops, all encased in lath and plaster. An oak staircase, now without a balustrade, rises through a half turn to the attic room above the front left, which has incomplete oak boarding on oak joists, with the floor positioned at mid-height of the front sash window. The attic room in the rear wing also features oak floorboards, and the ground-floor rooms in the rear wing contain various oak beams and joists.
