Description

46 and 47 Crown Street are a pair of houses built in the early 18th century, with a refronting that occurred around 1830. They are timber-framed and faced with white brick, featuring a shallow-pitched slate roof with a plain eaves soffit. An internal chimney stack has a tall, narrow rectangular white brick shaft.

The buildings are three storeys high and have cellars. Each house has a two-window range, with 16-pane sash windows on all three storeys set in flush cased frames. The first and second storey windows have flat arches, while the ground storey windows are slightly larger with segmental-arched heads. There are two plain semicircular-headed brick doorways, each with a six-panelled door surrounded by reeded architraves and fanlights with radial glazing bars. Above the ground-storey window of No.46, there is a small plaque that reads 'Restored 1977, D.M.G K.A.B.'

Inside No.47, much of the interior has been modernised. The cellar has been rendered with a replacement ceiling. On the first storey landing, there is a section of mid-18th century balusters from the former stair, though the handrail has been replaced. The stair leading to the second storey features stick balusters and a plain handrail. The principal room on the first storey has a late 18th century fireplace with fluted engaged columns and a fluted frieze. The rear room on the second storey has a fireplace with a bolection-moulded surround. No.46 has a fireplace in the first storey front room that is identical to that in No.47, and this room also features a plaster cornice with egg-and-dart and bead-and-reel ornament. Three other upper rooms contain cast-iron raised grates in a 19th century Gothick style. The stair in No.46 also has stick balusters and a plain handrail.
