Description

Number 1 Angel Hill is a house that has been converted into doctors' surgeries on the ground floor, with living accommodation above. It is part of a larger group of buildings, some from the 20th century, that extends south along Athenaeum Lane and west towards Angel Lane. The house was reconstructed around 1815 or 1816 on an older site and is built of white brick with a slate roof that has a plain eaves soffit.

The exterior features three storeys and a five-window front. The first storey has 12-pane sash windows, the second storey has 6-pane sash windows, and the ground storey has sashes with plate glass, all set in cased frames with deep reveals and flat gauged arches above. A raised stucco band runs below the first storey windows. The central doorway is recessed and has a semicircular surround within a Doric portico, which is supported by fluted pillars and topped with a heavy entablature. At the back, a single-storey 20th-century range connects the main building to a former stable block that faces Angel Lane. The stable block features a colour-washed wall made of kidney flint and red brick, a plain semicircular-headed doorway, and a wide segmental-arched opening that has been infilled with a window. On the upper storey of the stable block, there are three 12-pane sash windows set in deep segmental-arched red brick reveals, with the middle window from the 18th century featuring thick ovolo-moulded glazing bars. The Angel Lane side of the stable has been extended with a white brick front that includes a wide central semicircular arched opening flanked by two semicircular-headed doorways with radiating glazing bars in their fanlights.

Inside the main house, the hallway is paved with limestone flags and features linking black dots. The ground floor rooms have plaster cornices decorated with acanthus leaves and floral motifs, along with panelled doors and internal shutters. At the rear, there is a semicircular-headed archway with moulded surrounds and sunk panels in the reveals. The date of the rebuilding is noted in the town Rate Book.
