Description
No 6 Rock Houses, also known as Little Rock House, is a terraced house with a narrow facade that is painted stucco and stands four storeys tall. It features a single window bay and has a parapet. The sash windows, which were listed in 1977, have all been replaced with plastic. Originally, the top floor had 9-pane windows, while the second and first floors had 12-pane windows. The doorway, which may have been altered in the early 20th century, is recessed and features a wide 8-panel door (6 of which are glazed), along with side-lights and top-lights, all set within a simplified open-pedimented surround.
The forecourt is enclosed by a short grey limestone wall topped with low iron railings. To the left, there are gate piers made of tooled stone with caps and facetted ball finials on pedestals, along with an iron gate. The low iron railings on a dwarf stone coping extend back to the corner of No 7.
At the rear, which faces the sea, there is a four-storey painted stucco bow front. The sash windows here have also been replaced with plastic, and the louvred shutters mentioned in 1977 are no longer present. The facade is paired with No 7, which is adjacent. The top floor features two square windows that were formerly 6-pane sashes, while the second floor has three windows: two narrow ones that were formerly 8-pane, flanking one broad window that was formerly 16-pane. The first floor has two long windows that were formerly 24-pane, and the ground floor has two similar windows that were also formerly 24-pane. Old photographs indicate that the two narrow lights on the second floor are 20th-century insertions.
