Description
Chapel Row is a terrace of four houses built around the 1840s, located on Chapel Road in St Tudy. The houses are constructed from granite ashlar, with gable ends made of granite ashlar and stone rubble. They feature a rag slate roof with gable ends and have brick end stacks as well as a central brick axial stack.
The terrace consists of four houses arranged in a double-depth plan, each with a two-room layout. The two outer houses are heated by end stacks, while the two central houses are heated by a back-to-back axial stack. Each house has an entrance that leads directly into the front living room, with a kitchen located at the rear and a staircase behind the entrance, separated from the kitchen by a screen. There are small single-storey service wings at the rear, which were rebuilt in the late 20th century.
The exterior is two-storeys high and features a regular four-window front, comprising two pairs of houses with symmetrical two-window front elevations. The left pair (Nos 1 and 2) has two central entrances with 19th-century stable-type doors, flanked by two 16-pane sash windows. The left-hand sash window is likely original, while the right-hand sash has probably been replaced in the 19th or 20th century. The first floor has two early 19th-century 16-pane sashes. The second pair of cottages is a mirror image of the first, with 19th-century doors, and the left-hand ground and first-floor windows have been renewed in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Inside, the houses are largely complete, featuring 19th-century ceiling beams, rough granite lintels above the living room fireplaces, and early 19th-century staircases with stick balusters, which are partitioned off by early 19th-century timber screens. The front, rear, and side elevations remain unaltered, and the interiors are largely intact.
