Description
No. 5 Upper Crescent is a Chartist bungalow built around 1847. The building features roughcast on stone rubble and has a slate hipped roof with rendered end stacks and a central stack at the rear. It is a single-storey structure with a three-bay range, where the center bay projects forward. There is a 20th-century porch at the center, which includes a part-glazed door. On either side of the center, there are 20th-century metal top-hung single-light casements, as well as 20th-century wood top-hung, two-light casements. The center bay has a cross-gable with a quatrefoil ventilation stone. The interior has not been inspected.
Historically, Charterville was the third of five estates created by the National Land Company, which was founded by Feargus O'Connor in 1845. The aim was to allow people from factory towns to live on smallholdings and qualify for a vote. However, the Land Company faced difficulties and was dissolved in July 1851.
