51-64, Westgate

This is a row of mid-19th century cottages numbered 51 to 64 on the South Side of Westgate. The cottages are built of brick with a Welsh slate roof and have 14 chimney stacks. Each cottage has two storeys, with a segmental-headed window on each floor. The windows lack glazing bars. Similarly, the doorways are segmental-headed, featuring 2-light segmental fanlights and plain doors; a modern door replaces the original at number 62. A stone plinth runs along the base of the buildings.
