2, Union Place

No. 2 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 approximately 1754 to 1827. The house is constructed of local brown brick and features a slate roof with a side stack. It stands three storeys tall with a basement and has three bays. The shallow parapet is topped with stone copings, and there is 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 with stone cills. The first floor has three twelve-paned hung sash windows, while the ground floor features two similar windows, all in matching openings. 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.

At the rear, there is a 19th-century two-storey wooden panelled extension with brick foundations. Inside, the house retains two original chimney pieces, which are decorated with sunk panels and reeded detailing.
