Description
No. 127 is a house dating from the early 18th century, constructed of brown brick with red brick details and topped with a plain tiled roof. The building has two storeys and an attic, with a basement set on a plinth featuring red brick quoins. The roof has a moulded wooden eaves cornice and is adorned with pedimented Dutch gables, a flat-roofed dormer, and a stack at the rear right.
On each floor, there are three segmentally headed glazing bar sash windows, all featuring rendered heads with cornice block keystones. To the left, there is a door with six raised and fielded panels set in a fluted moulded doorcase, accessed by four steps. A wooden casement window is present in the basement.
To the left of the house, there is a wall about three feet high that projects approximately four feet and includes an integral footscraper. There is also a wall about two feet high enclosing the forecourt. The building is an addition in the same style as the row of early 18th-century houses adjacent to it, numbered 129-135.
