Description
6 Priory Street is part of a terrace of six stucco-fronted houses, painted and featuring Welsh slate roofs that are hidden behind parapets, making them not visible from the street. This convex terrace consists of three-storey, double-depth houses, some of which originally had shops on the ground floor. There are a total of nineteen windows arranged in the pattern of 5:3:3:3:5 on the first floor. The ground floor includes four shopfronts (Nos. 1-4), an arched entrance to White Swan Court, and tripartite 6 over 6 pane sashes for Nos. 5 and 6.
The shopfronts are framed by fluted strip pilasters, while No. 3 and the entrance to White Swan Court are framed by plain Doric pilasters. Nos. 5 and 6 feature single pilasters at each end and three paired pilasters framing the tripartite windows. The entrance to White Swan Court has a fine pair of original double panelled doors. The ground floor also has six-panel doors with arched heads, impost blocks, and radiating fanlights. A continuous cornice at the ground floor creates a cill band for the first-floor windows, which are large 6 over 9 pane sashes, with blind boxes on those of No. 4.
No. 3 and the entrance to White Swan Court showcase giant pilasters extending through the first and second floors, topped with Composite capitals. There is a cill band for the second-floor windows, all of which are 3 over 3 pane sashes. A cornice band and parapet band are present, with No. 4 featuring an additional attic floor, complete with a pediment and a Diocletian lunette window. The other houses each have one small flat-topped dormer visible behind the parapet. The rear elevations of Nos. 1-3 are not visible, and White Swan Court is adjacent to No. 4. The entry to White Swan Court is flat-topped and framed by plain pilasters, with a first-floor 4-light window that is four panes high in an arched recess, along with a tripartite sash above it. Nos. 5 and 6 have various plain sashes as previously described. The interior was not seen during the resurvey.
