3-5 Castle Street, Glenarm, Ballymena, Co Antrim, BT44 0AT

Non-identical pair of two storey rendered terrace houses of perhaps c.1835-40, now with modern window frames and doors. No.3 appears to have a ‘flying lease’ over part of no.5. The properties are situated on the N side of Castle Street. The whole front elevation faces S with the façade of each property asymmetrical. No 3 To the left on the ground floor front elevation is a modern timber sheeted door with a ‘diamond’ shaped glazed panel. The doors to nos 3 & 5 are ‘paired’ and have a fine smooth cement surround. To the right is a ‘mock sash’ (actually top hung) window. To the first floor there are two similar windows. No 5 has a modern panelled door to the right on ground floor front elevation and a modern top hung window to the left. To the first floor there are two further similar windows. To the rear elevations (3 and 5 c combined) there are a recent two storey flat roofed return; these have modern windows. The returns almost entirely obscure the whole of the rears of both houses. Roughcast rendered finish to front; the rear elevation has a mixture of finishes including facing brick, smooth cement render and rough cast. The gabled roof (both houses) is slated. To the E and W ends of the ridge is are plain rendered chimneystacks which merge with the chimneystacks belonging to the neighbouring buildings. Cast iron rw goods to the front and PVC rw goods to the rear.
