Numbers 11 And 12 And Attached Walls And Piers

A pair of attached houses, Numbers 11 and 12, were built in 1865 by WH Hawtin. They are constructed of limestone ashlar with ridge stacks and a concrete tile hipped roof. The design follows a double-depth plan and is in the Italianate style. Each house is two storeys high with an attic, featuring a two-window front. The ends of the pair are set forward, with single-storey porches on the returns. The ground floor has a moulded band, the first floor a sill band, a frieze, a cornice, and a full attic storey with overhanging eaves. The porches have semicircular-arched doorways with keys and impost mouldings, plate-glass fanlights, and two-panel doors. Canted bays at the ends have semicircular-arched windows with keys and imposts, thin hoods curling up at the ends, and paired brackets supporting an arched cornice; the canted bays feature a balustrade with circles and half-circles. Ground- and first-floor windows have architraves and sill blocks; the ground-floor windows are semicircular-arched within, segmental above, and tripartite to the outside, with ears and a segmental hood over the middle window. Similar flat-headed attic windows have raised surrounds, and contain 2/2-pane sashes. The interior was not inspected. The property includes attached front garden balustrades and panelled, capped piers. These houses are one of a group of seven matching properties, four of which differ by having projecting central sections.
