Description
No. 9 Morford Street is a terrace house, now converted into flats, dating from around 1775 to 1789, with 19th and 20th-century alterations. The building is constructed of limestone ashlar, which is now painted at the ground floor, with timber bressumer over the ground floor, rubble at the basement, and a mix of ashlar and rubble at the rear. It features a double pile roof that is parapeted at the front, with concrete tiles on the front and pantiles on the rear.
The exterior consists of three storeys and a basement, with a single bay tripartite-window front. The first floor has a Venetian window with four-over-four, six-over-six, and four-over-four sashes, featuring intersecting glazing bars at the head of the centre window, all set in plain reveals with a continuous stone sill and a wrought iron balconette. The second floor has three grouped windows, with narrower eight-pane fixed lights flanking a six-over-six horned sash, all in plain reveals with a continuous stone sill. The ground floor has two plate glass horned sashes to the left in plain reveals with stone sills, and to the right, there is a 20th-century six-panel door, which is disused, set in a moulded stone architrave with a frieze and moulded cornice forming a hood above. The basement has two blocked former windows, and a door under the crossover that is not visible. There is a band course over the ground floor, with only the upper moulding of the eaves cornice retained, and the coped parapet has been rebuilt in reconstituted stone. The rear elevation features six-over-six sashes with a wrought iron balconette at the ground floor. There have been 20th-century alterations to the basement and a 20th-century porch sheltering a new rear access to the flats.
The interior has not been inspected but is noted to have undergone alterations during the conversion to flats. The property also includes attached wrought iron railings and a former gate with a shaped head, along with hooped railing for a former footscraper by the door, which has been refixed on concrete bases.
