Description

Nos 1 to 3 Amen Court, dating from the late 17th century, form a two-storey row with a basement and dormers. The buildings are constructed of red brick, featuring bands and a later yellow brick parapet. The roofs are tiled and slated. The entrances are plain and recessed, adorned with late 18th-century fanlights and lamp arches that hold lamps. Nos 2 and 3 have a slated mansard roof at the front. There is no front area, and No 3 has a bow window on its return. The rear is irregular, with a large wing at No 1 and a smaller wing at No 2.
