21, 23 AND 25, DUKE STREET

PADSTOW DUKE STREET (south side), Padstow SW 9075-9175 8/74 Nos. 21, 23 and 25

GV II

3 houses, possibly originally one large house. Probably C17 origins remodelled in C19 and divided into 3 houses. Rendered and painted stone rubble. Asbestos slate roof with gable ends. Early crested ridge tiles and moulded eaves cornice. Brick front lateral stack. Plan: The original plan is uncertain and the houses have been extended to the rear. It is possible that this range originally comprised one large house of 3-room and passage plan, and was divided into three 1-room plan cottages. However, the interior was not accessible and the original arrangement is unclear. Exterior: 2 storeys. Asymmetrical 4-window front with ground sloping down to the left. Complete early C19 12-pane sashes on the first floor. No. 21 to left has a probably C19 4-pane sash and C19 door with 2 sashes above. No. 23 and 25 share the front entrance opening and each have separate doors which are set back within. Each have a 4-pane sash on the ground floor and 12-pane sash above. Interior: Not accessible. An interior inspection may reveal several interesting features and would aid an analysis of the plan development.
