Nos 1-8 (consecutive) The
Stackhouses

GV II

Formerly known as: Nos.63-69 AND 63A-69A BANK PARADE.
Block of "top-and-bottom" or stack houses. Probably early C19,
in 2 builds; altered and recently restored. Coursed squared
sandstone (roof not visible, but probably slate).
PLAN: linear plan, the lower houses single-depth built
back-to-earth and facing the River Brun to the east, and the
upper houses double-depth and facing an alley (now enclosed)
accessed from Bank Parade to the west.
EXTERIOR: 2 plus 2 storeys in 2 pairs, with a vertical joint
between them. The right-hand pair (numbered 5 and 6 at ground
level), with 1+1 windows at 1st floor, have coupled doorways
in the centre with chiselled surrounds, a round-headed doorway
at the right-hand end with stepped rusticated voussoirs
(giving access to a stone staircase to the upper alley), and
small rectangular windows with C20 4-pane glazing; the pair
above them have a stone-flag balcony carried on cast-iron
brackets and protected by cast-iron railings, French windows
to this and rectangular windows above. The left-hand pair
(numbered 7 and 8 at ground level), with 2+2 windows at 1st
floor, break forwards, have unusual decoration including
chiselled bands at lintel level of the 1st 3 floors and
between the floors of the upper pair of houses a band with
panelled ends and rope-work ornament; separated doorways in
the centre of the ground floor, and rectangular windows on all
floors (with C20 12-pane top-hung casements), all these
openings with chiselled surrounds. The right-hand (north)
gable wall has a plaque inscribed "The owners of this land has
a right to half this wall 1847".
INTERIORS not inspected.
