Description

130 and 131 Southgate Street is a house that was originally built in the early 18th century and later extended and divided into two separate homes. A 19th-century extension is located at the southern end, while both houses have rear extensions from around 1960. The building is constructed of dark red brick with lighter red brick dressings; the 18th-century section features flint walling and gables, and both parts have tiled roofs with a plain eaves soffit. The 19th-century extension has a much shallower roof pitch.

The exterior of the building is two storeys high, with some parts having a cellar and attics. Plain pilasters are evenly spaced across the front. There are seven windows in total: the 18th-century section has five 12-pane sash windows set in flush cased frames with segmental-arched heads, gauged segmental brick arches, and brick aprons. The 19th-century extension includes two sashes in flush cased frames, one with 16 panes and the other with 12 panes, as well as a tripartite window on the ground floor featuring a central 12-pane sash, all with flat gauged arches. A raised plain brick band runs between the storeys. The older section has an internal chimney stack and two gabled dormers with 2-light single bar casement windows. Each house has a recessed six-panel door accessed by steps, along with rectangular fanlights. The doorcase for No.130 has plain reveals, a pulvinated frieze, and a pediment, while No.131 features a doorcase with panelled reveals, moulded brick pilasters, and a pediment with a segmental lower arch.

Inside, the building is irregularly divided, with the 19th-century south end and part of the 18th-century range forming No.130, while the remainder of the 18th-century range is No.131. Below No.130, there is a brick and flint walled cellar with 19th-century joists on edge. There is some fragmentary evidence of timber walling in No.130, but no clear signs of an earlier core. Most of the interior features are in the Georgian style.
