Description
Cathedral View consists of two houses built in the 1860s. They are constructed from brick with ashlar dressings and feature a tile roof with brick stacks, designed in the Gothic style. The buildings are two storeys high with an attic and have a five-window range, with a gabled forward break to the right of the centre.
There is a string course and a first-floor sill course, along with a fascia that has pendants and plain bargeboards. The entrance, located to the left of centre, has an altered surround and an overlight above the door, which has a segmental-pointed head and three cusped lights. To the right end, there is a segmental-headed entrance with a key above a similar door.
On the ground floor, to the left end, there is a window with an altered surround and a tripartite plate-glass horned sash. The forward break features a tripartite window with shaped heads above horned sashes and a label mould that extends over an armorial bearing. The first floor has pointed windows with shafts that have foliate capitals and sashes, while the paired lights in the forward break have banded brick arches over archivolts. The attic includes two gabled dormers with Y-tracery windows and a small gabled light at the right end.
