8-14, Old Maltongate

A terrace of four houses and shops built in the early 19th century, with alterations undertaken in the mid-to-late 19th century and the 20th century. The buildings are constructed from pink and cream mottled brick in an English garden-wall bond, with a brick dentil eaves course. They feature coped gables with shaped kneelers, brick stacks, and a pantile roof. The front of the terrace presents a three-storey, five-window facade. A round-arched passage entry is situated between numbers 8 and 10. Number 8 has a mid-19th century shop front with a six-pane window. Numbers 10, 12, and 14 have small-pane bow windows; those at numbers 10 and 12 were likely originally shop windows, while the one at number 14 is a replacement. All houses have 20th-century part-glazed doors positioned beneath overlights, to the left of the window at numbers 8 and 14, and to the right of the window at numbers 10 and 12. Numbers 10 and 12 incorporate a continuous projecting cornice over all the openings. Numbers 8 and 10 retain original 16-pane sashes on the first floor, and unequal 12-pane sashes on the second floor; number 8 has 4-pane sashes on both floors; number 14 has 20th-century small-pane replacement windows. The windows above the passage entry are blocked. All upper floor windows have painted stone sills and painted wedge lintels. A roof light is present on number 14. Number 8 was unoccupied during a review in 1990.
