9, The Crescent

9 The Crescent is a terrace house built around 1797, part of two linked terraces that share a common pedimented facade dated 1808, alongside the Wesleyan Chapel constructed in 1803 by Joseph Medworth. This development is part of the planned circus of the Castle Estate. The house is made of local brown brick with a slate roof and a side stack. It has three storeys and a basement, featuring an irregular window pattern on the street facade. The stone-coped parapet includes a painted stone band at the first and second floors.

On the first floor, there is a sixteen-paned recessed hung sash window, and on the second floor, a twelve-paned recessed hung sash window, both set in cambered gauged red brick arches with stone cills. The late 19th-century ground floor has a three-light hung sash window with a stone cornice supported on console brackets. The entrance features a six-panelled door with a plain fanlight, set in a recessed, round-headed gauged red brick arch, and is accessed by two stone steps.

Inside, the house contains an open string staircase and two arches, one of which has reeded half-columns.
