Description

Aurora is a two-storey, three-bay town house built around 1800. It has a symmetrical rectangular plan and features a gabled roof. The exterior is harled, likely made from random rubble, with squared blocks used for the quoins and margins. The windows have plain margins and projecting cills.

On the principal (east) elevation, the house has a regular arrangement of windows with a door located in the center. The west (rear) elevation was not visible in 2001, and the north (side) elevation is obscured by an adjacent building. The south (side) elevation has a blind gable end.

The windows are timber framed and double-glazed. The roof is covered with grey slates and has lead flashing, along with broad, coped gable stacks and coped skews. The interior was not seen in 2001.
