Description
This is a late 18th-century building in Maryport, originally the New Crown Inn and now used as residential accommodation. It is constructed with blocked render over cobble and sandstone walling, featuring dressed stone surrounds to the windows, which have been painted. The roof is covered with Cumbrian slate laid in diminishing courses, and it continues the roofline of No.1 New Crown Yard to the west, culminating in a gable with a kneeler and plain verge. There are rendered chimney stacks at each end of the building, and cast iron rainwater goods are present.
The principal, south-facing elevation is three storeys high and has three bays, with irregular window placement. The ground floor has a single four-paned vertical sliding sash window in the right-hand bay, alongside a small square casement window. The first floor features one window in the centre and right-hand bays, which are not aligned with the ground floor openings. The right-hand window is a single-paned casement, while the left-hand window is a twelve-paned vertical sliding sash (6 over 6). The upper floor has three small square windows, two aligning with the first-floor windows, and a third in the left-hand bay. The gable elevation is near symmetrical, with four-paned (2 over 2) vertical sliding sash windows on either side of a panelled door, the door being positioned closer to the left-hand window. The first-floor windows mirror those below and feature horns.
A monopitched section extends to the left (north) of the gable, rising two storeys and spanning two bays. The ground floor of this section has a nine-paned (3 over 6) vertical sliding sash window to the right, above which is a four-paned sash (2 over 2). To the left, the ground floor has another four-paned sash, and above it, a smaller window, which is part of No. 15 Bridge Street. Modern windows are found on the two-storey wing.
The yard elevations reveal a three-storey block with a sixteen-paned (8 over 8) sash window on the ground floor and a twelve-paned (6 over 6) sash window on the first floor. The second floor has two small square casement windows, and there are two modern rooflights in the rear slope.
The building contributes to group value alongside No.15 Bridge Street, 1 New Crown Yard, and 2 and 3 South Quay.
