Description
Two attached houses, numbers 62 and 64 Charlestown Road, were built in the early 19th century, as evidenced by a tithe map from 1843. The front of the houses is covered in slate, while the roof is asbestos slate and hipped on the right-hand side. They have brick stacks located to the left and in the centre. The houses follow a shallow-depth plan and include a small lean-to at the rear of number 62 (on the left) and an outshut at the rear of number 64.
The two-storey houses present a five-window facade, with each house displaying a nearly symmetrical front and a central doorway. Number 64 retains its original 16-pane hornless sash windows across its three-window front. Number 62 has similar original windows, except for a later sash window with horns in a smaller opening to the left of the doorway. Both houses feature original six-panel doors and open distyle porches supported by open wrought-iron columns.
The interior of the houses was not fully inspected, however panelled window shutters were noted in number 64. These houses are part of a largely unaltered group in what was a fishing and china clay port. The wrought-iron columns are noteworthy examples of their type.
