Description

30 Trinity Crescent is a three-storey, three-bay tenement building dating from around 1860. It is constructed of cream sandstone ashlar, with coursed rubble on the sides. The building features a dividing course between the ground and first floors, an eaves cornice, and blocking courses. The windows have tabbed surrounds.

On the northeast elevation, the upper storey has a regular arrangement of windows. The entrance is offset in the right bay and consists of a timber panelled door topped with a plate glass fanlight, which is set in a doorpiece with a heavy cornice supported by ornate consoles. Above the door, it is inscribed 'Bath House'. To the left, there is a two-light window with a stone mullion set in a shallow corniced projecting bay, which has stop-chamfered corners. The door and projecting window are capped by a blocking course. There is a narrow gap at the ground floor between No 30 and the adjoining building to the right.

The windows predominantly feature four-pane glazing in timber sash and case style. The roof is covered with grey slates and has stone skew, with coped ashlar stacks on the ridges of the M-shaped roof.

The property is also enhanced by decorative cast-iron railings and gateposts with ornate heads, which enclose the basement area and entrance.
