6 The Croft

6 The Croft is a terraced house that is now part of the Fourcroft Hotel and is the first in a matching row of four houses, numbered 6 to 9. The building features a painted stucco street elevation with a basement, three storeys, and a 20th-century attic. The ground floor has a channelled finish. There are steps leading up to the doors, which are set in round-headed recesses adorned with fluted pilasters and moulded capitals that extend into the reveals as impost bands.

On the first floor, there are continuous iron-railed balconies with an anthemion pattern supported by cast iron brackets. The door and window on the ground floor are not aligned. The property has iron area railings with steps leading down to the basement, which contains a window and door situated beneath a bridge that leads to the front door. The area railings feature uprights with stud-headed finials, and the railings have an attractive wrought-iron scroll pattern flanking the steps to the doorways.

The large sash windows originally had 16 panes on the second floor and a full-length 24 panes on the balcony, with 16 panes on the ground floor. Many of these have been altered but are being renewed to match the original pattern. Since 1977, No 6 has had small-paned sashes replaced to restore the original design. There are four terrazzo-clad steps leading up to the doorway, which has a radiating-bar fanlight with remnants of finer work. To the right, there is a gated opening leading to concrete steps down to an aligned 16-pane sash window and a 20th-century door beneath an arched bridge.
