Description


LANCASTER

SD4761NW CASTLE PARK 1685-1/6/49 (South side) 22/12/53 Nos.10, 12 AND 14

GV II

Row of 3 houses, originally part of a row of 5. Mid C18, altered C19. Sandstone ashlar facade with ashlar dressings, coursed rubble to the rear. Slate roofs and brick chimney stacks on the party walls. 2 storeys with cellars and attics, and 10 bays with chamfered quoins at the right, a first-floor sill band, and a moulded eaves cornice. Each house is of double-depth plan with various rear extensions, and each is of 3 bays, except No.10 which has a fourth bay over a wide waggon entrance, whose stone lintel is carved to appear as a flat arch. All the openings have moulded architraves. The windows on the ground floor are sashed without glazing bars, and those above have 8-pane sashes. Beneath each ground-floor window is a low cellar opening some shuttered, some blocked. The doorways have recessed panelled doors; the one to No.10 (next to the waggon entrance) is of 6 panels and has an overlight with diamond glazing bars and is flanked by reeded pilasters which suggest an early C19 date; those to Nos 12 & 14 (side by side in bays 3 & 4) have 9-panel doors with integral overlights. Each house has a low hipped attic dormer, that to No.14 of double width, with small-paned horizontal sliding sashes. The rear of No.14 is of 3 storeys.
