Description
No. 40 Lemon Street is a small town house built around 1810. It features a granite ashlar plinth, with the rest of the front made of local freestone ashlar. The house has an asbestos slate roof and a brick stack on the left side. It is two storeys high and has a front with two windows. On the right side, there is a round-arched doorway that contains a six-panel door and a spoked fanlight above it. The house has a late 19th-century bay window with quadrant sidelights, a moulded cornice, and hornless sashes that do not have glazing bars. The original 16-pane hornless sashes are located on the first floor under cambered arches with projecting keyblocks. The interior has not been inspected but is likely to be of interest.
