83, 85 & 87, LONG STREET

This building, now divided into three dwellings, was constructed in the mid to late 18th century. It is built of brown brick with a wooden eaves cornice. The roof is covered in pantiles, featuring stone coping and shaped kneelers, as well as a central ridge chimney. The building is two storeys high with six irregularly spaced first-floor windows.

The ground floor doorways, from right to left, include a modern six-panel door within a 19th-century wooden surround and oblong fanlight with glazing bars, flanked by 19th and 20th-century bays. A further modern door with an architrave and oblong fanlight appears alongside a six-panel door set in a wooden surround with an oblong fanlight and margin lights. Sixteen-pane sash windows are present on each side, set within flush wooden architraves and painted lintels. The first floor has a three-course band. Above, 19th-century sash windows are visible with painted lintels, with one 20th-century replacement. A two-course band runs between the first-floor windows and the eaves. The building is listed partly for its contribution to the surrounding group of buildings.
