Nos 97 And 98 And Raised Forecourts

This listing describes a pair of houses, Nos 97 and 98, built in 1888 for Christine Hamlyn. The houses are rendered and whitewashed on a rubble core, topped with a slate roof featuring gable ends and two ridge stacks with brick shafts. Each house has a central entrance hall flanked by small rooms. The exterior is two storeys high with an attic, featuring three windows in No 97 and two windows in No 98 on the first floor. The windows are predominantly 2-light mullioned and transomed casements with diamond-paned leaded lights. There are two door openings with half-glazed doors and gabled hoods. The houses have elevated forecourts built on rubble plinths, with slate cappings and iron railings. The interior of No 97 includes late 19th-century joinery and chimneypieces.
