Eastway House

Eastway House, located at No 5 East Street, is a building that possibly dates from after 1731. The Bastards' map indicates a structure in the same alignment as Nos 1 to 3 and 7 to 17 East Street, although the current house is set further back from the street. It features a five-window front and is two stories tall with an attic, constructed in typical brickwork. The house has closely set sash windows with keys and brick string courses. The parapet is adorned with three stone vases and has a small moulded stone coping that rises to form a gable at the center, creating the appearance of an open pediment. There is a round-headed window in the gable with stone imposts and a key. The central first-floor window has a rubble brick arch with a shaped soffit and keystone. The doorcase is enhanced by fluted Ionic pilasters, a dentil cornice, and a pediment. An iron balustrade surrounds the fanlight, which features a lion keystone, and there is an iron balustrade leading up to the entrance steps. Inside, there is notable contemporary plasterwork.

Eastway House is part of a group with Nos 1 to 17 (odd) and the outbuildings behind Nos 1 and 3, all of which are of particular interest as most date from the fire of 1731. Additionally, No 5 forms a group with a dwarf wall, gatepiers, and a summerhouse.
