Description

The terrace at 53-57 New Street comprises five houses built around 1840, constructed in two distinct phases. The houses are of painted brick construction with a Welsh slate roof. Numbers 55, 56, and 57 form a single build, presenting as two storeys with a single-unit plan and a single-window arrangement. Each house has a four-panelled door set within a round-arched recess, topped with a traceried fanlight. The windows are 12-pane sashes with wide, flat-arched heads on both floors. A gabled dormer has been added to the roof of number 57. Numbers 53 and 54 were built as a pair, rising three storeys with a single-unit plan and a single-window range. They feature six-panelled doors with fanlights in round-arched recesses, alongside 12-pane sash windows with flat-arched heads. Brick end wall stacks are present.
