Description
This building is a block of houses located at 19-26 Newbuildings, constructed between 1870 and 1871. It features rendered red sandstone under a gabled-end roof covered with red tiles, and has unrendered sandstone rear extensions that contain workshops and privies. The structure is two storeys high with attics and has axial stacks with brick shafts.
The front of the building has two separately gabled projections, with eaves that are slightly lower than the flanking and central range. Each floor has two windows, all of which are sashes, and there is a two-light casement window in each gable wall. The main range has casement windows that consist of two lights, with six panes per light. Additionally, there is one two-light casement window in the gable walls at either end. All sash and casement windows are made of timber and are set under shallow window arches.
This block is part of a longer sequence of eight blocks of houses built to replace dwellings that were destroyed in the Broadclyst fire of 1870. While the houses share basic features, each unit is carefully varied from the others.
