Description
No. 13 Ashton is a house built in the late 19th century. It features solid rendered walls and a slated roof adorned with crested ridge-tiles. On the right side wall, there are two red-brick chimneys with ornate caps made of projecting brick courses. The house is single-fronted and double-depth, standing two storeys tall with a garret and is two windows wide.
The ground floor has a four-panelled door to the left, which is framed by pilaster strips and topped with a triangular pediment on consoles. To the right of the door, there is a triple-sashed window flanked by pilasters and an unmoulded triangular pediment. On the second storey, to the left, there is a sash window set in a segmental-headed eared architrave, and to the right, a canted bay window with sashes and a moulded top cornice. The sills continue across the entire front of the house, and there is a moulded cornice above the second storey. A pilaster-strip runs up the entire right-hand side of the building.
Above the top cornice, two dormer gables rise, breaking through the prominent bracketed eaves-cornice. Each dormer gable features a bracketed sill, two-paned sashes, shaped bargeboards, and a tall terracotta finial.
