1-8, Lower East Hayes

The Lower East Hayes comprises eight terrace houses, built in the late 18th century with a 20th-century addition. The houses are stepped uphill from number 1 to the west. They are constructed of limestone ashlar with double-pitched slate and pantile roofs, featuring moulded stacks to the party walls. The houses have double-depth plans with rear wings.

Numbers 1 to 8 are arranged as a three-storey terrace. Number 1, which is now a shop, has a painted facade, a pantile roof, a dentil cornice and a frieze below a 20th-century parapet. It also has a first-floor platband, six/six-pane sash windows (some with crown glass in the upper floors), a 19th-century projecting shop to the right, and a six-panel door with glazing at the top, sheltered by a stone hood on brackets. Number 2 is similar in appearance, with a pantile roof and a reeded cornice. Numbers 3 to 8 are a two- and three-window range, with double Roman tile roofs and plate glass sash windows. Each has a six-panel door with glazing at the top, and various hoods and porches; the porch to number 8 is projecting and enclosed.

The interior of number 2, inspected in 1984, retains the original staircase, which features a Doric newel and square banisters.
