23 and 24, Southside Street

23 and 24 Southside Street is a large town house from the early 18th century that has been later subdivided and fitted with shopfronts. The exterior is finished in stucco or render, likely over studwork, and features a steep hipped roof on the left side, with projecting eaves adorned with large, widely-spaced dentils. The roof is covered with asbestos slate on No. 23 and dry slate on No. 24. There are two hipped roof dormers at different heights and probable rear lateral stacks.

The building has three storeys plus an attic and an overall six-window range. There is a blind window on the second floor between the two houses, which may indicate that it was originally a seven-window range. The left side is now blind on the first floor of No. 23 due to the installation of a tall shopfront. No. 23 features 20th-century two-light casements and an early 20th-century transomed corner shopfront with glazing bars above the transom and a doorway at the splayed corner. No. 24 has a three-window range with 20th-century four-pane horned sashes in the original openings. The ground floor includes a full-width late 20th-century or remodelled 19th-century six-light double shopfront with a squat moulded fascia and a house doorway to the right.

The interior has not been inspected but may still have interesting features.
