47 and 49, Lower Street

47 and 49 Lower Street are two houses, originally three separate dwellings, that were joined together. They date from around 1830 and are constructed of brick with a slate roof and brick end stacks. The buildings are two storeys high and feature a four-window range. The ground floor windows have rubbed brick flat arches with sharp angles over sash windows. No. 47 has 20th-century casements designed as 12-pane sashes, while there is a blind window above an elliptical-headed entry between Nos. 47 and 49. No. 49 has 16-pane sashes, but the left ground floor window is a 4-pane sash. Both houses have round-headed entrances with panelled doors. No. 49 has paired entrances with 20th-century doors, although the left entrance is not in use. This property is part of a row of six early 19th-century houses. The interior has not been inspected.
