Description

Three storey (+ basement and attic) two-bay classical Georgian house fronting west side of Hill St. Walls are of finely dressed granite ashlar. This is the right hand one of a terrace of three similarly proportioned houses. Pitched natural slate roof, without chimneys. Three modern skylights have been inserted on the back pitch. Half round metal rainwater goods with down pipes at left and right. Four granite steps lead up to front entrance at left. This comprises a modern six-panel painted door flanked by two ashlar granite Ionic columns supporting an entablature, above which is a semicircular radial fanlight of cast-iron. Brass name affixed to wall at right of right jamb. To right of door are two 6/6 sliding sash windows (no horns). All façade windows are detailed as this. A passage runs around the outside of the basement, which was formerly lit by two windows in line with those at ground floor. The left window is now infilled, and the right has been enlarged to take a modern t+g door. At first and second floors are three windows, all in line with ground floor openings. Those on second floor are diminished in height and all windows have granite cills. Basement passage enclosed at street level by wrought-iron railings (with urn-topped posts) set on a finely dressed and chamfered plinth. These railings return on both sides of the steps up to entrance. Left and right gables abutted by adjoining buildings. The rear wall is of rubble granite brought to courses, with stepped brick trimming around the window openings. Its ground floor is entirely abutted by a flat roofed extension, which rises to first floor level at right. Above the latter is a tall 6/6 sliding sash (with spoked head) at half landing between first and second floor. At first floor centre is a 6/6 sash window, and a pair of timber casement windows above at second floor. To the left of the latter (which is diminished in height) is a modern sheeted fire escape door out to metal balcony, from which steps lead down to first floor of adjoining premises, across the back which runs a metal balcony. All these windows have granite cills.
