Description

Nos 14, 15, and 16 Bridge Street are a row of three 3-storey houses dating from the 18th century. They feature slate roofs with eaves that are notably higher than those of No 13. The front external walls are faced with cement rendering and include quoins and a plinth.

Nos 14 and 15 each have four windows, with a doorway in a blank bay at the right-hand end. The right side has long and short quoins. Each house has three moulded wood round-headed doorcases with open pediments, fluted pilasters, six-panelled doors, and fanlights. The middle bays contain sash windows with glazing bars on both upper floors, with 12-pane sashes (4 over 8) on the top floor and 16-pane sashes on the first floor. On the ground floor, there are two three-light sash windows, one on each side of the central doorcase. The central doorcase features plain reveals, a semi-circular fanlight with radiating tracery, and a six-panelled door. The left-hand end has blind window openings on the second and first floors, with a doorcase leading to a passage on the ground floor; this doorcase has reinstated plain reveals, a blocked tympanum, and a six-panelled door. The doorcase for No 14 is located in the blank bay at the right-hand end, featuring a pediment with dentils, fluted pilasters, panelled reveals, a six-panelled door, and a semi-circular fanlight with radiating tracery.

No 16 has a 3-window front and a slate roof with a higher ridge. Its window openings have moulded architraves and long and short quoins. The second floor has 12-pane sash windows (4 over 8), while the other floors have 16-pane sash windows. The central round-headed doorway features fluted pilasters, a pediment with dentils, panelled reveals, a semi-circular fanlight with radiating tracery, and a six-panelled door. At the rear of No 16, there is an L-plan outbuilding block from the 18th to 19th century. The wing running from northwest to southeast has stone rubble walls and a roof primarily covered with modern tiles; it includes an opening with a brick head and dressings. The northeast elevation has five bays, with upper floor openings set at the eaves and ground floor openings blocked with brick. The wing at right angles, running from northeast to southwest, passes behind Nos 14 and 15 Bridge Street and has stone rubble walls with a slate gabled roof, featuring a loft door with a brick head on the northeast side.
