Description

2, 4, and 6 Museum Street are three houses built in the early 19th century, with some additions from the 20th century. They have gault brick walls and stacks, topped with a slate roof. The buildings are arranged in an E shape, with three storeys and cellars.

The front elevation faces east and features brickwork with scored pointing, displaying three windows and three doorways. Houses 2 and 4 mirror each other, sharing a stack and outer doors, while house 6 is similar to house 2 but has its own stack at the north end. The doorways and the ground and first-floor windows have segmental heads, with all windows being horizontal sliding sashes. The ground and first-floor windows have six panes by four panes, while the second-floor windows have six panes by three panes. House 2 retains its original door and windows, while house 6 had its windows replaced in the early 20th century and house 4 in the late 20th century. The doors of houses 2 and 4 feature four flush bead moulded panels, while house 6 has six fielded panels. Each house has an angled glazed cellar light below the windows that opens onto the pavement.

The south end elevation has a ground floor that is now rendered, with a blocked window recess. The first floor features an early 20th-century central window similar to those on the front, with four panes by three panes. The rear elevation to the west includes a two-storey addition for each house, constructed of rendered brick with slate roofs. The outer pair, houses 2 and 6, have hipped roofs, while house 4 has a lean-to with casement windows that include glazing bars. The first floor of houses 2 and 4 has two-light windows with four panes by three panes, and house 6 has a pair of two-light casements, each with two panes by two panes. The ground floor of house 4 features a stable-type door and an adjacent casement window. Above the eaves of the street range, houses 2 and 4 each have a pair of simple 20th-century casement windows.
