No. 6 and Attached Railings and Vaults

This is a late 18th-century house, built around 1775, originally part of No. 1 Bennett Street, but later separated from it. It is likely designed by John Wood the Younger, though other possibilities include Thomas Warr Atwood or Thomas Jelly. The house is constructed of limestone ashlar to the front, with the basement painted, and has a hipped roof with double Roman tiles to the front. A stack, rebuilt in reconstituted stone, rises from a party wall shared with No. 5 Oxford Row.

The front of the building has four storeys and a basement, with a three-window arrangement. The first floor features three six-over-six horned sash windows within splayed, ovolo-moulded architraves, stone sills, and cornices. The second floor mirrors this design. The third floor has two paired six-over-six horned sash windows in plain reveals, sharing a continuous stone sill, and a single sash to the left. The ground floor has two six-over-six horned sash windows in splayed reveals and stone sills, a narrow four-over-four sash, and a six-panel door with a flush beaded and fielded glazed panel. The door is set within a stone doorcase with pilasters and brackets, topped with an enriched ovolo moulding; a wrought iron footscraper is attached to the plinth block. The basement has a six-over-six sash, a modern window incorporating older panes, a modern doorway, and an opening leading to vaults, with associated steps. A continuous band course runs above the ground floor, and a modillion eaves cornice is shared with No. 1 Bennett Street. The rear elevation is not visible. The interior has not been inspected.

Attached wrought iron railings and a gate with shaped heads on limestone bases are part of the property. The house was built alongside No. 1 Bennett Street, with leases dating from 1774 and a ground lease from the Council in 1773. The design is typical of Palladian architecture from the 1770s.
