Description

8 Masons Row is a simple classical building dating from the 18th century. It is two stories high with a three-window facade, except for No 1, which has a two-window facade. The frontages are finished in scribed render and roughcast, featuring rusticated quoins and end pilaster strips. The roofs are slate with boarded eaves and cement render chimney stacks. The sash windows are mainly 12-pane, although No 3 has modern windows. The windows have lugged architraves with decorative keystones and voussoir lintels. The doorways have similar detailing, except for Nos 2 and 3, which feature pediments. No 7 has a six-panel door with a four-pane fanlight, while No 8 has a boarded and four-panel door with a four-pane fanlight. The group is completed by No 9 Regent Street, which has a one-window frontage to Masons Road and a three-window entrance elevation to Regent Street, displaying similar detailing.
