Description

Emily Bank is a pair of semi-detached houses built in the later 19th century. They are single storey with an attic and have a rectangular plan, featuring four bays. The houses are constructed from coursed red brick with yellow brick dressings. Notable architectural features include projecting cills, segmental-arched window and door openings, a corbelled eaves course, and gabled dormers that have timber bargeboards and finials.

The west elevation is symmetrical with panelled bays. The two central bays contain timber doors accessed by steps, which have letterbox fanlights above them. There are windows in the flanking bays on either side, and three dormer windows in the attic storey.

The south elevation was not visible in 1998.

The east elevation is also symmetrical and features an M-gable. It has windows in the two central bays and doors with two-pane fanlights in the outer left and right bays.

The north elevation is asymmetrical with three bays, and the centre and right bays are gabled. The ground floor has regular fenestration, while there is a window off-centre to the left of the gablehead.

The houses predominantly feature six-pane timber sash and case windows. The roof is covered with grey slate and has a lead ridge. The brick gablehead stacks have corbelled coping and circular cans, and there are cast-iron rainwater goods.

The interior was not seen in 1998.

In addition, there are gates, gatepiers, and boundary walls associated with the property. The gatepiers are red and white with stone pyramidal caps located to the west of the house. There are boarded timber gates to the west and east, and brick walls with semicircular coping.
