Description

29 Newman Street is a terrace house built around 1760-1770. It features brown stock brick and a slate roof, rising four storeys with a basement and three windows across the front. The ground floor is stuccoed with shallow rustication and includes an original doorway on the right, framed by engaged wooden Tuscan columns, triglyph dosserets, and a broken pediment. This doorway leads to a six-panel door with a radial glazed semi-circular fanlight in panelled reveals. The rest of the ground floor has a mid-20th century shop window.

The upper floors have recessed sash windows without glazing bars, set under red brick flat arches. There are two stucco swagged panels added above the display window, a plat band on the first floor, and a parapet with coping. Wrought iron area railings are present. Inside, the house retains plasterwork friezes and cornices in the hall and first-floor rooms, along with a geometrical staircase.
