Description
No 16 Bolton Street is a terrace house built in the late 18th century. It features reddened brick and a slate roof, standing four storeys tall with a basement and a dormered mansard. The house is two windows wide and has a rusticated stuccoed ground floor. To the right, there is a semicircular arched doorway that contains a panelled door flanked by sidelights and a radial glazed fanlight, supported by pilastered jambs and topped with an entablature. The upper floors have recessed sash windows, some of which still have glazing bars, set under flat gauged arches. A stucco plat band runs along the first floor, and the parapet is finished with coping. A patterned cast iron balcony, dating from around 1800, spans the first floor. The property also features cast iron area railings with urn finials and retains its original lead rainwater heads and pipes.
