Description
Number 69 and 71 are a pair of houses with attached area railings, built around 1820 to 1834. They are shown on Merrett's 1834 map but not on the Post Office Map of 1820. The houses are constructed of stucco over brick, topped with a slate roof and featuring four renewed end brick stacks, along with iron balconies.
The exterior consists of three storeys above basements, with four first-floor windows arranged in a 2:2 pattern. There are bands at the first and second floors, and a crowning frieze and cornice with a blocking course. The ground floor has tripartite 1/1 sash windows, while the first floor features tall 1/1 sashes. The second floor includes 6/6 and 3/3 sashes, all set in plain reveals with sills. The basements contain 8/8 sashes. There are two central entrances with steps leading up to 6-panel doors; the door on the right has fielded panels, and both doors have lattice friezes and overlights with batwing and circle glazing bars.
The interior has not been inspected. Notable subsidiary features include first-floor window guards with a web motif and area railings featuring an X-motif.
