Description
The Limes is a three-storey town house built in the 19th century. It features a double-pile design with a roughcast exterior and a slate close-eaved valley roof, supported by four large roughcast stacks at the end gables. The front has a three-window layout with a central entrance that is framed by an earlier 19th-century timber classical porch. This porch is adorned with two Roman Doric columns, pilaster responds, an entablature, and a cornice with paired brackets. The entrance has panelled reveals, an eight-panel door, and a traceried fanlight decorated with metal festoons and leaves. There is a limestone step in the porch and a slate step at the doorway.
On either side of the entrance, there are later 19th-century canted bay windows. The first floor features horned 12-pane sash windows with a sill band, while the attic has tilting square windows with nine panes. Flanking the porch are lengths of fine wrought iron railings, which have scrolled spearheads on the top rail and a lozenge pattern at mid height. The property also has a rock-faced limestone curb. The rear wall is whitewashed stone and includes one upper window with six panes, framed by stone voussoirs.
