7, Buttgarden Street

This is a house located at 7 Buttgarden Street, dating from the early to mid-19th century. It features rendered solid walls facing both Buttgarden and Meddon Streets, topped with a slate roof. The right end wall has an old red-brick chimney with a rebuilt top, which appears to be shared with the adjacent No. 8 Buttgarden Street, and is adorned with two spiked pots.

The house is two storeys high, with a main two-window range on the Meddon Street side and a one-window return on Buttgarden Street. The Meddon Street front has a central doorway with a raised chamfered surround and a moulded cornice supported by consoles, leading to a late 20th-century six-panelled door. There are windows on either side of the door, each featuring shaped raised surrounds that imitate stone quoins, with slightly pointed heads. The second-storey window surrounds are similar but have flat heads. All windows are fitted with six-paned sashes, and the right-hand ground-storey window has two lights with sashes that include horns. The Buttgarden Street windows have matching surrounds and six-paned sashes as well. There are raised quoins to the left of the Meddon Street front and to the right of the Buttgarden Street front. The interior has not been inspected.
