Description

22 China Street is an early to mid 19th century, three-storey building with a four-window facade made of colourwashed brick. Nos 22 and 23 are designed as reflected one-window pairs. The building features a slate roof with wide boarded eaves, a central brick chimney stack, and another chimney near the base of the front roof pitch of No 22. The windows are primarily 9 and 12-pane sash types with voussoir lintels, and the ground floor windows have a cambered design without glazing bars.

To the right of the centre, there is a semicircular arched tunnel passage with a boarded door. No 22 has a six-panel door, while No 23 features a half-glazed door, both with cambered voussoirs. A modern three-light shop front with a half-glazed door is present at No 24. The right gable end is made of red brick, and the left side is slate hung. The tunnel passage is whitewashed brick and includes two later doorways in the middle and two original doorways at the rear, one of which is blocked up. This arrangement may indicate that the houses were originally built as back-to-back homes. The rear of the building is also slate hung.
