Description

House known as No. 21 Queensborough, built in the early 19th century. It features colourwashed brick with clay lump on the rear wall and a roof made of corrugated tiles. The building has two storeys and a three-window range. The central entrance has a 20th-century door with an overlight containing four panes, and it is topped with a moulded timber door hood. There are late 19th-century three-light casements on both sides of the door and three similar two-light casements on the first floor. The roof is gabled with an internal gable-end stack on the east side, and there is a single-storey outshut at the rear. This house is part of a significant group of buildings on Castle Street and is included for its group value.
