5, Morford Street

5 Morford Street is a house, now converted into flats, built between 1775 and 1789. It features limestone ashlar, which has been painted on the front, with a timber bressumer over the ground floor. The rear is constructed of ashlar and rubble, and the building has a double pile roof that is parapeted at the front, with pantiles on both the front and rear. The left side has a coped party wall with two ashlar stacks, which are now without pots. There is a staircase located at the rear.

The exterior consists of three storeys and a basement, with a single bay tripartite-window front. The first floor showcases a Venetian window with plate glass horned sashes, flanked by two two-over-two sash windows with intersecting glazing bars at the top, all set in plain reveals with a continuous stone sill and a wrought iron guard. The second floor has three grouped horned sashes, with narrower plate glass flanking a two-over-two sash, all in plain reveals with a continuous stone sill. The ground floor features two two-over-two horned sashes in plain reveals with splayed jambs and a stone sill to the left. To the right, there is a 20th-century six-panel door, which is disused and was formerly set in a moulded stone architrave, of which only a small section remains at the lower right, topped with a moulded cornice forming a hood. The left side has a plinth, with a band course over the ground floor, a moulded eaves cornice, and a coped parapet that has been rebuilt in reconstituted stone.

The rear elevation includes six-over-six sashes, with horns on the second floor, and a three-over-six sash at the second half-landing. There have been 20th-century alterations to the basement and a 20th-century porch that shelters 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.
