Wharf House

A 1½-storey house of large slate-stone blocks laid in regular courses, under a slate roof, half-hipped to the R, on deep projecting eaves. There are 2 stone ridge stacks, to the centre and L, and one stack on the rear wing. A gabled porch to the L of centre has a replacement panel door and glazed side panels, beneath an original boarded gable with vertical and arched ribs. Side walls of the porch have small windows with leaded glazing. A single window to the L and 3 windows to the R of the porch are all replacements in earlier openings. The second window R of the porch is within an earlier wide doorway under a stone lintel partially cut into by the window. The R-hand window has a vertical joint beneath its L-hand jamb, suggesting that it was also originally a doorway. Two gabled dormers placed to the R of the porch have replacement windows.

The pebble-dashed R (S) end wall (described as slate-hung in the previous survey) has an added balcony on 2 square piers, with glazed door, an inserted and a replacement window. The L (N) gable end has a blocked doorway to the R, to the L of which is a raised band, probably defining the ridge of a former lean-to. Above is a replacement window. The rear of the main range has replacement windows either side of the rear wing. The roof of the wing has bands of fish-scale slates. Entrances to 2 of the modern apartments are in the rear wing. In its N wall are external steps to a replacement panel door. In its E gable end is a 2-storey projection housing a porch, L of which is a replacement window. The attic and S side wall also have replacement windows.
