Description

27 and 28 Carclew Street are an irregular pair of terraced houses built around the 1820s. They feature dressed, coursed Killas stone; the left house has stone voussoirs and rendered cob on the upper floor, while the right house has brick arches and is otherwise stone-fronted. Both houses have asbestos slate roofs and brick end stacks.

The layout is a double-depth plan, with each house containing a reception room at the front and a kitchen behind, along with small service extensions at the rear of parallel central passages. The buildings are two storeys high with an overall four-window front. There are two round-headed doorways in the center, each with 20th-century doors and blind fanlights. The other openings are topped by shallow segmental arches with keyblocks, except for two openings in the first-floor cob of No. 27. This house has two original first-floor hornless sash windows, which have had their intermediate glazing bars removed, three later four-pane sashes, and a 20th-century window on the ground floor to the right. The interiors have not been inspected.
