Description
No. 40 on West Street is an early 19th-century house with a rendered front that likely has a solid ground storey and timber framing above, designed to imitate masonry. It features a slated roof and a rendered chimney on the right side wall. The building stands three storeys high and is one window wide. The doorway to the left of the ground storey window is flanked by pilasters and has an entablature, with the frieze breaking forward over the pilasters and decorated with diamond-shaped panels. The doorway has panelled reveals, a patterned fanlight, and a late 20th-century Georgian-style door. The ground storey window has two-paned sashes, while the second storey features a canted wood bay window with sashes, including a two-paned window in the centre and a bracketed top cornice. The third storey has a barred sash window with four panes over eight panes.
