Description

No. 9 Marland is a house dating from the early to mid 19th century. It features rendered solid walls, with the lower section on the right made of painted stone rubble. The house has slated roofs, with asbestos slates on the lower section and crested red ridge tiles on the main roof. A red brick chimney with eight pots is located on the right-hand side wall.

The main house is four storeys tall with a two-window front, while the two-storeyed section to the right is now only one window wide, as part of it appears to have been demolished to create a small courtyard. The ground storey has a rusticated finish and a raised band at the sill level of the second storey. The doorway on the left is round-arched with moulded imposts, flanked by pilasters that support an entablature with a bracketed cornice. It features a recessed six-panelled door with a patterned fanlight above and an ornate iron footscraper inside the doorway, set on the left side.

The upper storeys show faint traces of masonry markings, and the windows have moulded architraves. The bracketed wooden eaves cornice adds detail to the roofline. All windows are sashes, with those on the third and fourth storeys having one upright glazing bar per sash. The two-storeyed section on the right has a single blind window in the ground storey, which seems to infill an earlier, wider opening. The right-hand stone rubble side wall, likely a later addition, features a late 20th-century garage door with an iron girder lintel in the ground storey. In the centre of the upper storey is a large mid-19th-century round-arched window, which contains a two-light wooden casement with three panes per light; below it is a fixed five-pane sash, and above is a transom-light with interlacing Gothic glazing bars. To the left of this window is a smaller window with a fixed four-pane sash. The interior has not been inspected.
