Description

Number 3 is a house, now used as offices, dating from the mid-18th century and altered around 1980. It is constructed of brick with end stacks and features a pantile roof. The building has a double-depth plan and stands three storeys tall with a three-window range. The right-hand door consists of 10 panels and has a flat canopy above it. There is a canted ground-floor bay with small projecting sides, which includes an entablature with triglyphs, an 8/8-pane sash window in the middle, and 6/6-pane sash windows on the sides. The first and second floors also have 6/6-pane sash windows with segmental heads. The interior has been rebuilt behind the facade. The property is complemented by wrought-iron front area railings.
