Description

Number 85 is an early to mid-18th century villa. It is constructed of stucco with a brick lining, featuring a gabled roof covered in Welsh slate. The roof has intricately designed barge boards and fascias. A yellow brick chimney is located on the left side, and a prominent stuccoed chimney is on the right, featuring an overhanging modillion cornice and a blocking course. The chimney breast’s design includes three superimposed arched panels with pilasters, semicircular heads and decorative keyblocks.

The villa follows a three-bay front with an L-shaped layout. The upper floor has flush-set French windows with margin glazing on the left and right sides and a central margin-glazed sash window over a projecting gable. A moulded band runs along the first-floor level, while the ground floor features projecting rectangular bay windows with tall three-light casements, each having three panes and a single sidelight, with fretted wood valances. Flat roofs have wooden balcony fronts with stick balusters and nosed toprails. A projecting porch in the centre features three-pane sidelights, a triangular fanlight and a tiled roof with fretted and pierced bargeboards.

The fenestration is irregular on the remaining elevations, incorporating 16-pane sash windows and tall casements. The east-facing elevation, along the boundary, possesses a central arcaded chimney breast as described above, a moulded band at first-floor level, and flush-set glazed sash windows to the ground and first floors on the right-hand side. The interior of the property was not inspected at the time of listing.

Subsidiary features include a boundary wall constructed with brown brick piers and flint panels.
