23, Botyl Road

No. 23 Botyl Road is a house and disused shop that was originally built as cottages in the 18th century and early 19th century, with some alterations made in the late 19th century. The right two bays are constructed from red and vitreous brick, featuring some timber framing in the upper gable. The left bay is made of red brick with a half-bay extension in rat-trap bond to the left, and there is a similar extension to the north along the road. The building has a thatched roof that is half-hipped to the right and includes three intermediate brick chimneys. It is 1½ storeys tall and has four 19th-century wooden casement windows on the ground floor, with two-light windows flanking a three-light window, the latter being barred. The first floor features four gabled semi-dormers with paired barred casements and similarly glazed gables. Each of the three main bays has a doorway on the right; the center bay's door is blocked, while the others have board doors. All ground floor openings have segmental heads. The gable facing the street includes a 20th-century bay window and a three-light casement window above it.
