Description

No. 3 is a house located at the end of a short terrace, originally built as police housing in 1904. It is attached to the Police Station and features rock-faced Portland stone with ashlar dressings and slate roofs. The building has a twin-gabled design and stands two storeys high, with each storey containing one window. Above the tripartite sash windows, which are set in flush chamfer surrounds, there is a small ventilator in the coped gable. The central upper sash window includes two vertical bars. The entrance features a well-crafted panelled door beneath a small plain transom light. The house has a plinth and a moulded mid-string that connects it to the adjoining houses, Nos. 1 and 2. A central cast-iron downpipe leads to a long hopper-head at mid-string level. Large square brick stacks are positioned just off the ridge level.

In front of the house, there is a boundary wall made of regular rock-faced stone with plain coping, which continues with the boundary wall of Nos. 1 and 2. This house is part of a significant architectural composition, with no external changes, and is important for its visibility on the skyline from the approach road coming from Victoria Square below.
