Description
Nos. 137, 139, and 141 Cricklade Street, along with Nos. 1-7 Lewis Lane, are a group of seven houses and a corner shop built in 1889 for the Bathurst Estate. The buildings are constructed from coursed squared limestone with ashlar dressings and feature concrete tile roofs with coped verges. The structure has one ashlar ridge stack with a moulded top facing Cricklade Street, two concrete blockwork ridge stacks, and one corbelled-out cross-axial stack made of stone with a reconstituted stone top on the Lewis Lane elevation.
This L-plan building sits at the corner of Cricklade Street and Lewis Lane, displaying three gables on each elevation. The front facing Cricklade Street is two storeys high with an attic and has a five-window range. The first floor features four three-light chamfered stone mullion windows and one single-light window, with three windows on the right having 19th-century iron casements, while the left side has 20th-century louvred lights. Above, there are three similar two-light windows in the gables. The ground floor has two three-light and one two-light chamfered stone mullion windows on the left and right (Nos. 137 and 141) with 19th-century iron casements, and a 20th-century louvred window in the centre (No. 139).
To the right, the shopfront includes a three-light ovolo-moulded stone mullion-and-transom window, with a transom stopped over carved brackets for the centre light, which has a round head and keystone. A round-headed chamfered opening with a keystone to the left leads to a plank door with a single-pane overlight (No. 141) and a half-glazed shop door. The building features a chamfered plinth and a moulded string over the ground floor that forms hoods over the doors, with brattishing over the shopfront and a bracketed apron above the first-floor window. The gables have flat coping that is corbelled out over the kneelers. The splayed corner on the ground floor has a single-light ovolo-moulded stone transom window, with a moulded corbel above that displays an applied shield and coronet with the lettering in relief "B REBUILT 1889." The elevation facing Lewis Lane is similar in design. The interiors have not been inspected.
