Description
Hatfield Buildings comprise a terrace of eight houses dating to around 1820, with 20th-century alterations. The houses are constructed of limestone ashlar with slate roofs. They are stepped to follow the steep hillside, forming an L-shaped arrangement at the lower end, and are part of a larger group of buildings around a square.
Numbers 1 and 2, which face north, are two storeys high with three windows plus a single window. The three-bay section has a central sixteen-pane sash with a blind panel above, and a sixteen-pane sash above the door. A central 20th-century porch with a panelled door has been added. A narrow single bay is set forward to the right, with a twelve/twelve-pane sash window. A further bay was added in the late 20th century, carefully matching the original detailing, and is slightly set back. The first-floor windows align with a sill band, and there is a moulded cornice, a blocking course, and a parapet that returns to the single bay on the left, featuring a sixteen-paned sash window at first floor above a plain wall. The hipped roof has a broad stack to the rear. Numbers 3 to 8 are attached to the rear of number 2.
Numbers 4, 5, 6, and 8 have painted ashlar fronts. Numbers 3 and 4 each feature a window above a single door, with a ground-floor window set within a broad, sunk arched panel. Numbers 3 and 4 have replacement windows and a panelled door with a plain fanlight. Number 5 has plain sash windows and a door with four glazed panels under a swagged radial fanlight. Number 6 has a twelve-pane sash above a six-pane sash, with a 20th-century glazed door and a radial fanlight. Number 7 has a single window, with sixteen panes on each level, and a panelled door with a plain fanlight. Number 8 is three storeys high, single bay, with replacement windows and lacks a sunk arched panel to the ground floor. The return section has double gables.
Each house has a sill band, cornice with a blocking course and coping, coped party divisions, and ashlar stacks to the left. The interior has not been inspected.
