Nos.36 AND 37
GV II
Pair of small town houses. c.1840, altered at the rear. Red
brick in Flemish bond, with sandstone dressings and slate
roof. Double-depth plan, No.36 double-fronted (and canted
slightly back at bend in street), No.37 single-fronted, both
with back extensions (that to No.36 recently rebuilt). Two
storeys over cellars, 3+ 2 bays; with a rendered plinth, 1st
floor sill-band, plain frieze and moulded gutter cornice; and
a downspout slot at the angled junction. No.36 is almost
symmetrical (the central openings offset slightly to the
right), No.37 to the right has the doorway in the 1st bay;
both doorways, up 2 altered steps, have moulded architraves
with dentilled cornices on consoles, and 4-panel doors (the
upper panels round-headed), with overlights; and No.36 has a
lobby doorway at the left end, with a convex surround. All the
windows are apparently unaltered unhorned 12-pane sashes with
square panes, raised sills and wedge lintels; and there are
cellar window gratings in the pavement beneath each
ground-floor window. Ridge chimneys to No 36; end-wall
chimneys on both slopes of No.37. INTERIORS not inspected.
Very similar to Nos.38 and 39 which continue to the right,
forming part of a formerly complete set of late Georgian
lower-middle class town houses in this street.
