Description

No. 51 Broad Street is a house that has been converted into a hairdressers. It dates from the early 18th century and is constructed of brick with a steeply pitched plain tile roof and a brick stack at the rear. The building is three stories tall and has a cellar, featuring a four-window range. The windows include 6/6 sashes in moulded cases, which are set under gauged brick flat arches with stucco keyblocks. Above these, there are 3/3 sashes in similar settings. A stone band runs between the storeys, and the parapet has moulded stone coping that returns to rusticated pilasters topped with urns, although the finial on the left urn is missing.

The entrance, located to the center left, features a 19th-century part-glazed panelled door with an ornamental fanlight, all set beneath an entablature supported by fluted pilasters. To the left of the door, there is a plate glass window under a gauged brick flat arch with a stucco keyblock. To the right, there is a plate glass window in an altered opening, along with another plate glass window at the far right, both also under gauged brick flat arches with stucco keyblocks. The right gable is stuccoed and has returned coping.
