No 13 And Attached Forecourt Railings

No. 13 is a town house built around 1798 for merchant John Webb. It features a granite ashlar basement with local freestone ashlar above, topped by an asbestos slate roof behind a parapet. There is a brick stack on the right and a rendered stack on the left. The building has a double-depth plan and stands two storeys over a basement, with an asymmetrical front that has two window ranges. The doorway on the left includes a six-panel door with a plain overlight, panelled reveals within a moulded architrave, and likely original 12-pane hornless sash windows under shallow segmental arches with key blocks. A moulded cornice runs along the parapet. Inside, much of the original carpentry, joinery, and plasterwork remains, including moulded and carved ceiling cornices and bands. The forecourt is accessed by granite steps that lead to original wrought-iron railings with newel finials, and there are further steps down to the basement.
