Description
Lynwood, Albany House, Westford House, Longras, and Innisidgen are a terrace of five houses built in the early 19th century. They are constructed from rendered granite rubble and feature half-hipped slate roofs with brick stacks. Each house has a double-depth plan with a side entry and a rear stair hall. The terrace is three storeys high and has a symmetrical arrangement of ten windows, with two windows for each house.
The eaves cornice is concave-chamfered granite. The doors include eight-fielded-panelled doors with fanlights for Albany House, rectangular overlights for Lynwood, a mid-20th century replacement door with a similar fanlight for Longras, an early 19th-century door with four panels that has been replaced by glazing for Westford House, and an early 19th-century door with two panels that has also been replaced by glazing for Innisidgen. The windows consist of 6/6-pane sashes on the ground and first floors, and 3/6-pane sashes on the second floor, except for Lynwood which has an early to mid-19th-century canted oriel window with 4/20/4-pane sashes and a moulded cornice, and Westford House which features a first-floor bay window with 4/20/4-pane sashes.
Inside, Westford House has panelled doors set in moulded architraves, an open-well staircase with a wreathed handrail, and an enriched cornice with palmettes in the first-floor front room. Other houses are reported to have similar staircases and features.
The terrace is complemented by subsidiary features, including coursed and dressed granite forecourt walls with segmental coping at Albany House, Westford House, and Longras, as well as similar low walls at Lynwood topped with spear-headed railings and terminal urn finials.
