Description
Wisteria House is a pair of terrace dwellings built in the mid-19th century. Constructed of brick with a Welsh slate roof, the building features two storeys plus dormers and pediment lights. It has a nine-window arrangement, grouped as 1:3:1:4, with a gable pediment above the single window units. The brick dentil cornice and diagonal 'dentils' on the pediments add decorative detail. At ground level, there is a plate glass shop front in the eighth bay, flanked by paned units with fine moulded glazing bars. New glazed doors are set under a plain fascia and cornice. The first-floor windows are sashes, with no bars on windows 1, 2, and 3, while windows 4 to 9 have bars.
