7 Market Street, including railings and steps

This is a terrace of 3 late Georgian houses located at 7-11 Market Street. Nos 7 and 11 have a scribed roughcast finish, while No 9 has a pebble-dashed finish. The buildings are four storeys high and have a two-window range. They are topped by a slate roof hidden behind a parapet, with a late 19th-century brick stack to the left of centre and a roughcast stack to the right.

Nos 7 and 9 each have a half-lit panelled front door on the left and right respectively, while No 11 has a panelled door on the left. Nos 7 and 11 retain elliptical overlights with radial glazing, whereas No 9 has a replaced overlight. The lower storey of Nos 7 and 11 has 12-pane sash windows, while No 9 features a pair of 2-pane sash windows. The second storey has tall 2-light casement windows, which have been replaced but remain within the original openings. The third and upper storeys of Nos 7 and 11 contain 9-pane and 6-pane hornless sash windows respectively, while No 9 retains 2-pane sash windows in their original openings. The basements have replaced windows and doors, situated below the front doors. The original rainwater pipes have been preserved.

The houses sit behind wrought iron railings with moulded finials, stanchions and cast iron urns. These railings include gates providing access to the basements (except for No 7). The rear elevation of No 7 is roughcast with added escape stairs, No 9’s rear has rubble-stone construction with brick window surrounds, and No 11’s rear is rendered. These houses are part of a larger group incorporating numbers 7-11 Market Street.
