Description



MACCLESFIELD

SJ9173NE ST MICHAEL'S TERRACE
886-1/10/198 (West side)
17/03/77 Nos.5 AND 6

GV II

Pair of houses, formerly (though probably not originally) a
single dwelling. Late C17 with C19 alterations. Coursed and
squared rubble with stone-flagged roofs and internal timber
framing to No.6. No.6 forms the principal building on the
site, and No.5 was possibly built as a subsidiary to it - the
2 buildings are linked by a timber-framed bridge.
EXTERIOR: No.6 is 2-storeyed, raised in brick during the C19,
a 3-window range modifying a 2-unit plan. Present entrance in
centre, the flanking casement windows of 2 and 3 lights
probably late C19 insertions. Upper windows similarly
inserted.
No.5 is a small single-celled building at right angles and
linked by bridge at first-floor level to No.6. Present
entrance in gable wall, which has fixed light 9-pane window to
ground floor, and 2-light casement above. Blocked window in
apex of gable. Former doorway now a window in west wall, with
2-light stone mullioned window alongside.
INTERIOR: plan of No.6 has been slightly modified by the
partitioning of the main hall to form entrance hall and
service rooms to rear, but the moulded cambered bressumer of
the former inglenook, and its chamfered post survive. C19
inserted corner fireplace in former parlour, which was
possibly originally unheated. Enclosed staircase to rear of
parlour. Internal square panelled timber-framing, and queen
post roof, modified when the building was raised in height to
incorporate a full upper storey.
Inside No.5, cambered bressumer of former inglenook survives
against the south gable.
