Description

4 Spring Gardens is a house in a terrace row that originally consisted of four houses. Each house was either rendered or made of whitewashed rubble, featuring a slate gabled roof and end stacks. The building is two storeys high with an attic and a basement, originally having a three-window range with a central door. However, the fourth house was altered in the 19th century to create Nos 4 and 5, resulting in the loss of the central window and door. Originally, the houses had small-paned 12-pane sash windows and thin sill-courses.

No 4 is one of the two houses that were formed from a single house. It has a painted roughcast exterior and is two storeys high, with a basement and attic, featuring a one-window range with a door that is paired with that of No 5. The central basement door is aligned with the windows above, and there is a small basement window to the right, all of which have been replaced with later 20th-century uPVC. The sashes have glazing bars and were updated in 1981. Slate sills are present, and there is a flight of stone steps leading up to the ground floor door on the left. The door is plastic with a rectangular overlight, situated beneath a 20th-century gabled hood supported by timber brackets. The roof has two evenly-spaced skylights, and the right end stack has been removed. The property has not been inspected.
