Description

House, built around 1783 and altered in the 19th century, is now divided into flats. It was developed by John Fielder and Thomas and James Beale, and constructed by James Broom. The front is faced with limestone ashlar, while the rear elevation is not visible. It has a double-pile, parapeted mansard roof covered with artificial slate to the front, with a coped party wall to the left and an ashlar stack on the front roof. The plan is based on a quasi-symmetrical design, with pavilions projecting to the left and right (numbers 1 and 6), and a consistent horizontal design. A staircase is located at the front.

The house is three storeys high, with an attic and basement, and has a three-window front. The first floor has three plate glass sash windows with sliding panes set in splayed reveals. The second floor has three six-pane sash windows in splayed reveals with stone sills. The ground floor has two six-pane sash windows in splayed reveals and a six-panel door with a glazed panel, set in a beaded reveal with a single Pennant stone step. Above the door is a timber doorcase with a pedimented Ionic design, likely reused, and stone plinth blocks forming the height of the fluted pilasters. A small, now-blocked, circular opening is to the right of the front door. A crossover has one step and is paved with Pennant stone. The basement has two six-pane sash windows with a continuous stone sill, and a door is hidden beneath the crossover. The limestone area steps have Pennant treads. There is a double dormer with six-pane sashes. The building features a band course over the ground floor, a weathered sill band to the first floor, a bracketed eaves cornice, and a coped parapet. The rear elevation is not visible. The interior has not been inspected.

Attached wrought iron railings and a gate are present, with shaped heads on painted limestone bases.
