GV II

Row of 3 houses. Early C19 with mid C19 alterations. Squared
coursed sandstone with ashlar dressings. Slate roof with
overhanging eaves, one ridge and 2 gable stacks.
3 storeys above cellars. The windows are mostly glazing bar
sashes in plain stone surrounds. No.4, at the left, is of 3
bays, the 3rd bay being occupied by a 2-storey timber canted
bay window on a stone base, with timber casements with glazing
bars, and timber mullions. Between the storeys are blind
mullioned and transomed panels. The doorway, in the central
bay, has a timber porch with a leaded canopy on brackets.
No.5 has one bay to the left of the door which has a sashed
window on the ground floor. The bay to the right has a pair of
glazing bar sashes on the ground floor in a stone surround
with a central flat-faced mullion: the right-hand window of
the pair appears to belong to No.6. The door has a shallow
timber porch over a plain stone surround.
No.6 is of 2 bays with a doorway in the left-hand bay. The
right-hand bay has a window lighting the second floor, above a
2-storey canted timber bay window which is similar to that of
No.4 except that the casement windows do not have glazing
bars. The doorway has a shallow timber porch over a plain
stone surround.
HISTORY: at least 2 straight joints in the front wall suggest
that the houses are not of the same build, although the
stonework is similar in character. The bay windows are not
shown on the 5 feet to 1 mile OS map surveyed in 1845.
