Description
60 and 62 West Street are an unequal pair of small town houses, one of which was likely a former shop. They date from the early 19th century and are built from killas rubble with granite dressings. Most of the first floor features slate hanging on studwork, adorned with a decorative frieze, cornice, and panels. No. 62, on the left, has a dry slate roof, while No. 60 has its original scantle slate roof. The buildings have a double-depth plan, each containing one room at the front. They are two storeys high and have a three-window range. There is a blind window above a pair of doorways that are slightly right of centre. No. 62 features a mid to late 19th-century four-pane hornless sash window above a wider late 19th-century tripartite sash window. No. 60 has 20th-century partly-glazed doors and large-pane windows. These houses are included for their group value.
