Description
Number 6 is a semi-detached house built around 1688 by William Blake, with some alterations. The house is constructed of red brick featuring a plain brick band at the first floor level and lighter red brick dressings. It has a tiled roof with round-arched dormers and a moulded wooden eaves cornice supported by block brackets. The building has two storeys and four windows, along with a single window addition from the 20th century on the right side. The wooden doorcase is adorned with shaped brackets and a hood, leading to a panelled door with an overlight. The windows feature segmental arches and flush sashes with exposed boxing.
Although the interior was not inspected, it is noted that this was the last house built by Blake and may not have been panelled. It retains an early 18th-century staircase.
The property also includes attached wrought-iron railings on a low brick wall, with a gateway featuring a lamp overthrow and a Windsor type lantern.
