Description
These houses, numbered 3-6 Henry Street, were built around 1815 and have undergone alterations in the late 19th century to numbers 5 and 6, with post-World War II repairs to numbers 3 and 4. The buildings are constructed of limestone ashlar, with the ground floors painted at numbers 5 and 6. Roofs are covered in pantiles to numbers 3 and 4, and Welsh slate to numbers 5 and 6.
The houses form part of a twelve-bay terrace, although the left-hand end (three bays of number 2) is a post-war reconstruction and is not included in the listing. Numbers 2-5 are aligned, featuring a continuous sill band at first-floor level. Number 6 is set slightly forward, and has slightly greater floor heights. Each house has semicircular-headed doorways with fanlights, featuring six-panel doors (paired at numbers 3 and 4, and right-handed at numbers 5 and 6). Wrought-iron area railings are present. Numbers 3 and 4 each have three windows, all six/six sashes. Number 5 has plain sashes on the ground floor and two/two sashes on the first floor, with a six/six sash on the second floor. Number 6 has plain sashes on all floors, except for the blind window on the second floor to the left. The basement fronts of numbers 5 and 6 have been altered.
The buildings have a cornice, parapet, and mansard roof, with three flat-topped dormers each on numbers 3 and 4, and two each on numbers 5 and 6. These dormers have small-paned sashes, except for those at number 5, which have casements. Ashlar stacks are present, topped with pots, except for that at number 3. A rubble return wall is visible at number 6. The interiors have not been inspected. These houses are located on part of the former Manvers estate, which was sold in 1874. They were recorded as having been leased by John Allen in 1815.
