Description

No. 14 on London Road is a house dating from the mid-18th century. It is built of plum-red bricks with cherry-red brick dressings and features an old tiled roof that includes a gabled casement dormer and a moulded cornice. A Sun Alliance Fire Insurance mark, No. 328533, is attached to the top of the dormer. The house has two storeys and attics, with a first-floor band on the right side.

The slightly recessed left wing contains a segmentally arched carriageway with boarded gates, which have a moulded, swept ramped capping and a wicket door. The front facade features one slightly recessed sash window with glazing bars and exposed boxes, under flat rubbed arches, followed by two more sash windows. The entrance is a six-fielded panelled door set in an architrave surround, topped with a bracketed cornice hood.

At the rear, there is a wing that was originally behind No. 12, which has since been demolished. This wing also has an old tiled roof with a long slope that is interrupted by a tile-roofed dormer.
