Description
This is a mid-19th century, two-storey, six-bay, L-shaped house, originally a single dwelling and now divided into separate properties. A later Tudor Collegiate style porch/extension and a conservatory have been added. The exterior is constructed of squared and snecked sandstone with ashlar dressings around the canted windows. Overhanging eaves are supported by brackets, and the gables have bargeboards.
The west-facing elevation, onto Trinity Road, features an advanced gabled bay on the right-hand side with a double window on the first floor. A late 19th century glazed conservatory runs along almost the entire left side, as shown on an 1896 Ordnance Survey map; a single-storey, flat-roofed window projects from the ground floor. Second-floor windows are positioned to break the eaves, and the gableheads are decorated with bargeboarding.
The north-facing elevation has a two-storey canted window with a projecting gable, swept to a square shape, to the right-hand bay, with a cill course. The left and central bays are regularly fenestrated. An attic window is corbelled out above the second-storey window. A battered dividing course extends to the projecting window on the west elevation.
The rear, or east-facing, elevation has a two-storey gabled bay on the left, featuring two (possibly later) offset windows on the ground floor and a double window on the second floor. The roof steps down for two bays, with two narrow windows to the left, and a lean-to wooden porch provides access to number 108. The roof then steps up again for three bays, with gabled windows that break the eaves. These gabled windows are graduated in size, with the smallest on the left. A gothic porch adjoins the ground floor of the two right bays.
The windows are predominantly timber sash and case, with plate glass. Leaded stained glass is found within the porte cochère. The roofs are covered in grey slate, and there are coped stone stacks, most located at the ridges, with an additional wallhead stack situated between the two northernmost bays of the west elevation.
The porte cochère has a Tudor-arched carriage entrance with a roll-moulded surround, hoodmould, and trefoil moulding within the spandrels. It is flanked by slender, crenellated, octagonal engaged columns. A double Tudor-arched gothic window with a hoodmould is on the right side. A projecting string course and crenellated parapet are above. The main entrance to the house is situated behind a space with a false rib-vaulted ceiling; it features a two-leaf diagonally boarded door with decorative hinges, all within a Tudor-arched surround. A less ornate Tudor-arched entrance is on the rear, along with three gothic windows – two outer windows are two-lights, the central one is three-lights, and a curved bay features a single gothic window to the left. A projecting string course and crenellated parapet, less ornately finished than the front, complete the rear porte cochère. The stonework is of stugged, squared, and snecked sandstone.
The boundary walls are constructed of coped sandstone rubble, and octagonal gatepiers have moulded caps and ball finials.
