Description
These are a pair of semi-detached houses, built around 1840. They are constructed of coursed squared limestone with stucco dressings, and have Welsh slate roofs with a rendered ridge stack. The houses have a double-depth central block with recessed wings. The two-window central section features stuccoed bay windows with cornices, and tripartite sash windows. The first floor has segmental-arched sashes with moulded architraves and margin lights. The narrow wings each have a doorway with a stucco pilastered doorcase below a narrow round-headed, architraved sash. The shallow-pitched hipped roofs have boxed eaves, and a large central stack. The interiors were not inspected.
