Description

Nos. 35 and 37 on Four Ash Street is a house that has been converted from a monastic building. It is constructed of stone rubble with dressed quoins and features a slate roof that includes rooflights, raised verges with shallow coping, kneelers, and apex stones. There is a large lateral external stone stack on the left, which is raised and corniced in brick. The building has two storeys and an attic.

The oldest windows are small, recessed stone-framed rectangular lights with a metal armature, while other windows have shallow stone sills, wooden lintels, and 20th-century cross-framed casements, with sash windows in number 37. The gable-end facade has a single window on each floor. There is a doorway with a small gabled hood over a 20th-century door at the eastern end of the southern elevation, with a small rectangular light next to it on each floor. There are signs of blocking in the masonry to the right, a single window range at the end right for number 35, and another for number 37 (part).

Number 35 has a single-storey rear wing, while number 37 features an offset where the former garde-robe shaft is located, complete with a rectangular light at the upper level. The interior was completely refurbished in the 1980s, with no retention of historic fabric, although the roof may still have heavy beams with deep chamfers.
