Description

Number 3 is a house built around 1840, with minor alterations from the late 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of stuccoed brick and topped with a slate roof, featuring 20th-century dormers with segmental roofs and a brick chimney stack. The house is part of a terrace and is set back behind front paving and a fenced basement area.

The exterior has three storeys, a basement, and an attic. The front facade has three bays, with banded rustication on the ground floor, string courses at the sill levels of the first and second floors, a moulded crowning cornice, and a coped parapet. The entrance is located to the right and is accessed by a flight of stone steps with simple cast-iron balustrades. The door frame is recessed and features a rectangular fanlight above a four-panel door.

To the left of the entrance steps, there are two basement sashes with segmental heads. On the ground floor, to the left of the doorway, there are two later 19th-century horned sashes in openings with projecting stone sills. The first floor has three horned sashes with glazing bars (3x4 panes) in openings framed with moulded stucco eared architraves, each adorned with a moulded patera above the flat head. The second floor also has three horned sashes with central vertical glazing bars, in openings framed with moulded stucco eared architraves, each with a moulded patera above the flat head within a segmental arched moulding. The window sills on both upper floors project from the string courses.

The interior has not been inspected. A decorative cast-iron balustrade, likely made from reused 19th-century panels, is present on the stone curb of the basement areas.
