47, Lemon Street

No. 47 Lemon Street is a town house, now used as offices, built around 1810. It features local freestone ashlar and has a dry Delabole slate roof with brick end stacks. The building has a double-depth plan with a central entrance hall situated between two front reception rooms, and it stands two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window front. The entrance includes a round-arched doorway with a spoked fanlight and a 20th-century panelled door. Above the original hornless sash windows with glazing bars on the first floor are shallow cambered arches with projecting key blocks, while the ground floor has horned copies of these windows. Inside, the property retains much of its original joinery and plasterwork, including moulded architraves and chimney pieces with corner blocks, as well as moulded and carved plaster ceiling cornices and panelled doors.
