Description

Number 10 is a house built around 1835, constructed from witchert, which is a type of clay and chalk mixture. The exterior is colourwashed and rendered, topped with a hipped slate roof. The building has two storeys and three bays. The central entrance features a four-panel door with a radiating fanlight above, set within an architraved doorcase that has an open pedimented hood supported by console brackets. The outer bays have three-pane sash windows, while the centre first-floor window has a margined casement with a radial and margined fanlight above, all adorned with moulded labels. There are stacks for chimneys on the left and right at the rear.

To the north, there is a rendered witchert wall with a rubble plinth and tiled coping that runs north then west along the boundary, connecting to a wall that fronts the road. The wall features brick half-round coping, and the central section has cast-iron railings with foliage spearhead finials, along with a central cast-iron gate that matches. This house is a notable example of the high-quality use of witchert in a late Georgian villa.
