Description
No. 3 Union Place is a terrace house built around 1800, part of a planned group of six houses on the Castle Estate designed by Joseph Medworth, who lived from about 1754 to 1827. The house is constructed of local brown brick and features a slate roof with a side stack. It has three storeys and a basement, with three bays across its facade. The building has a shallow parapet topped with stone copings and a painted stone cill band at the first floor level.
On the second floor, there are three recessed hung sash windows with nine panes each, set in cambered, gauged red brick arches and stone cills with painted reveals. The first floor has three twelve-paned hung sash windows, while the ground floor features two similar windows. The entrance is marked by a wooden doorcase with fluted pilasters and a broken pediment, which frames a plain round-headed fanlight above a six-panelled door.
