Nos 1-15 and Attached Front and Rear Forecourt Walls

Nos 1-15 and attached front and rear forecourt walls form a terrace of seven pairs of houses, along with a single house, dating to the 1820s. The buildings are constructed from dressed stone and roughly coursed rubble, with No.15 rendered and having a grouted scantle slate roof. The remaining roofs are of asbestos slate, with No.15 also featuring a slate-hung gable end. Brick end stacks and cast-iron ogee gutters are present on Nos 2, 3, 6, 7, 10-13. The houses have double-depth ground floor plans, a two-room plan for the single house, and parallel entrance halls in the centre of the pairs. No.1 has two reception rooms at the front, flanking a central passage. The terrace is two storeys high and has an overall 23-window range. The structure is largely intact, retaining original window and door openings, with round-headed doorways featuring blind fanlights. Window openings are spanned by shallow arches. The pairs boast symmetrical three-window fronts. The doorway of No.1 is slightly left of centre to provide access to a rear wing (No.48 Carclew Street, which is not included). Original panelled doors are present at Nos 2, 6 & 12. Original sash windows with glazing bars are found at Nos 6 & 15, while some original sashes at Nos 10, 11, and 12 have had their intermediate glazing bars removed. Nos 1 (ground floor), 3 (1st floor), and 14 have 20th-century replacement windows. The interior was noted to contain original fireplaces, panelled shutters, and doors, although it hasn’t been inspected. Subsidiary features include grouted rubble front walls with dressed granite copings which originally enclosed a stone-paved courtyard, though these walls have been removed in front of Nos 8-14. Walls connect the service blocks at the rear. Carclew Terrace represents a complete example of planned early 19th-century terrace housing in the southwest.
