Description
27 Sheet Street is an early 18th-century building that stands two storeys high with an attic, constructed of brick. The façade features a symmetrical design with projecting brick piers at the corners and a central bay that projects 9 inches, topped with a pedimented gable end. The gable has a coping made of one corbelled course and brick laid on edge. Above the first-floor windows, there is a narrow brick string, and the side bays are capped with a parapet and stone coping. The roof is an old tile mansard style.
The central bay includes one window, while the attic has two hipped dormers. The first floor has three windows with flush architrave frames and segmental heads, and there are two similar windows on the ground floor. The entrance features a central seven-panelled recessed door with plain cut brackets and a flat moulded hood that has a bed-mould wrapping around the brackets. Small wrought iron scroll scrapers from the same period are present.
To the left, there is a late 18th-century extension that includes a coupled sash dormer window in the attic, along with one segmental-headed coupled sash window on both the first and ground floors. At the back of the house, there is a wing featuring a two-storey 18th-century angular bay window, with pilasters that divide the glazing bar sash lights.
Inside, the building has been altered and modernised but still retains a dog leg open string staircase with scrolled bracket tread ends and twisted balusters, two per tread. The hall includes a chimneypiece from around 1800, adorned with fascies columns and a patterae frieze. Nos 21 to 31 (odd) form a group with this property.
