Description
Nos 14-16, originally part of a terrace of weavers' houses, date from around 1789, with the first four houses built by 1791, and the remainder shortly afterwards. Nos 27 and 28 have been altered. Nos 14-16 are three storeys high and constructed of red brick, with occasional header courses visible. Stone footings are also present. Nos 14 and 15 feature stone quoins on their right-hand sides. Each house has a range of windows incorporating paired glazing bar sash windows set within stone surrounds with beaded inner edges. No. 14 has a blind recess on its right side, and bands above the ground and first floors, with the ground floor band partially obscured by a four-light mullion and transom window, installed in the early 20th century. This window is bracketed to the fascia and has a pediment and bracketted doorpiece below. No. 15 has a modern glazed door, while No. 16 has a six-panel door with glazed upper panels. Nos 15 and 16 have plain stone surrounds to their doorways, which also feature beaded inner edges. The roof is covered with double roman tiles, topped by continuous ridge and brick ridge chimneys. Nos 14 to 26 form a notable group.
