No.4 Lion Street, including Forecourt Gate & Railings

No. 4 Lion Street is a three-storey house from the 18th century. It is constructed of red brick and features band courses at the eaves and below the first and second floor windows, topped with slate roofs. The main façade facing Lion Street has five windows, all with keystones and bracketed sills. The second floor has square 6-pane hornless sashes, while the other floors have 12-pane sashes. The central doorway is notable for its fine pediment, rusticated pilasters, and a fanlight with intersecting tracery, leading to a 6-fielded-panel door. At the southeast end, there is a lower two-storey wing made of red brick with a hipped slate roof that projects forward to Lion Street. This wing has a 12-pane sash window on the first floor above a doorway with intersecting tracery in the overlight and a 6-panelled door.

The forecourt is enclosed by an impressive wrought iron gate with scrolled piers and an overthrow that bears a lantern, along with railings on a dwarf stone wall. The rear elevation consists of three storeys with four windows and features 16-pane rectangular staircase windows.
