Description


PRESTON

SD5428NW FRENCHWOOD STREET 941-1/14/126 (South West side) Nos.46 AND 47

GV II

Pair of small town houses. c.1840, altered. Red brick in Flemish bond, (No 46 rebuilt) with sandstone dressings and slate roof. Double-depth plan, each house single-fronted, with coupled back extensions and a through-lobby in the centre. Two storeys over cellars, 3 bays, symmetrical; with 1st-floor sill-band, plain frieze and moulded gutter cornice. The doorways, forming a triplet in the centre with the lobby door between, both up 2 steps with nosings, have round-headed architraves with set-in Tuscan quarter columns, plain lintels, and semicircular fanlights with convex moulded surrounds, that at No.47 with original radiating metal tracery; a 6-panel door to No.46 (door to No.47 now hardboarded). Each house has one window at ground floor, but No.46 has 2 at 1st floor (the 2nd over the lobby in the centre) and No.47 has only one, all with raised sills and wedge lintels, and those at No.47 4-pane sashes (those at No.46 all with altered glazing); cellar windows with wedge lintels, that at No.46 unglazed and that at No.47 protected by a grating. Gable chimneys. Rear and INTERIOR not inspected. The item is part of a formerly complete set of late Georgian lower-middle class town houses in this street.
