Description

No. 10 Town Close Road is a house dating from the early to mid-19th century, with some later alterations. It is constructed of yellow brick with some rendered details and features a slate roof. The building has three brick chimneys and is two storeys high, with an attic and a cellar. There are three first-floor windows, and the house has two gable-fronted wings that are defined by brick pilasters.

The entrance door, which is off-centre in the recessed left wing, has four raised and fielded panels and is topped by a plain overlight, flanked by pilasters with a simple cornice. There is a later glazed porch added to the entrance. To the right, there is a ground-floor canted bay with casement windows. The left wing features slightly canted casements that are positioned under moulded rendered hoods beneath an open pediment. The right gable has a string course and a round-headed attic casement window set in a rendered architrave, located below a ridge chimney. Other windows in the house have large-paned sashes.
