Description

8 New Street is a Victorian-altered late Georgian terrace. The terrace includes Nos 6, 18, and 20, which are three stories tall and have basements, except for No 6. They feature two-window render frontages, mostly scribed, with roughcast finishes. Nos 10 and 12, as well as 14 and 16, are reflected pairs, while No 8 has an additional window on its altered ground floor. The buildings have slate roofs, wide bracket eaves, and mainly rubble chimney stacks. The sash windows lack glazing bars, except for those in the basements. Nos 10 to 20 have three-story bay windows, and No 6 features a two-story oriel window above a tripartite ground floor window. Each building has pilastered doorcases with cornice lintels, except for No 7. There are various panelled doors, and the doorcase of No 20 has been filled in with a fixed glazed window, with the entrance now located in Castle Street through a similar doorcase. The rendered end wall has a sash window to the right.
