Description

No. 11 East Street is a house from the early 19th century that was enlarged in a similar style shortly after its original construction. It is positioned end-on to the road, with the ground sloping steeply to the north. The building is made of gault brick and has a slated roof, featuring a rectangular plan that includes an earlier unit and a later parallel range to the west. The house is two storeys tall with a cellar that is accessed from the northern ground level.

The east front elevation has three bays, with a central doorway that includes a four-paned over-light and a door made up of three flush beaded panels. The ground and first floor windows to the north are blind, while the other three windows have 20th-century two-light casements. All windows and doorways feature slightly segmented heads with refined voussoirs.

On the south end elevation, there are two gables from the original unit and a broader addition. The west block has projecting eaves and purlins, with a tall twin-shafted chimney on the west gable and a smaller chimney set back in the central valley. The east unit has a single ground floor window with 20th-century thick glass block panes, and a blind window aperture above on the first floor. The west end unit is blank.

The north end elevation mirrors the south end with twin gables and similar chimney placements and eaves, while the west unit is also blank. The east block's lower cellar ground floor features a plain boarded 19th-century door and an adjacent 19th-century sash window with four panes by three panes, flanked by deep Fletton brick buttress piers on either side. On the street level, there is one 19th-century sash window with four panes by four panes. The upper floor has a single 20th-century top-opening double casement window.

The west garden elevation consists of three bays, with a central doorway that has an over-light. The door features two upper glazed panels and two lower depressed panels. To the south, there is a plain 19th-century sash window without horns, and to the north, a three-canted bay window with a roof made of decorative 19th-century tiles and 19th-century sashes. The first floor has a central blind window, with the outer windows being both 20th-century top-opening double casements. There are stacks at each gable end with roll-moulded bases, and the shafts have corbelled brick heads.

Inside, the stack arrangement indicates the original slender east block with two rear stacks, and the more spacious added west block with end wall stacks. The different construction methods and altered stair system reflect the changes made during the building's enlargement.
