II

Detached villa. Early C19. Rendered, slate roofs. A tall but narrow-fronted detached house facing the street, with a lower service range attached to and set back to the left; all enclosed by a boundary wall. EXTERIOR: principal range in 3 storeys; at second floor are two 16-pane sashes in deep reveals, above a 2-storey central bow with 8:12:8-pane sashes and dentil cornice. Ground floor is enclosed by a late C19 glazed verandah on a low brick panelled wall, and incorporating a contemporary glazed door with margin panes to the left; opposite this, in the original wall plane, is a similar door, with margin panes, side-lights, and transom light. The glazed verandah roof continues above a rubble stone wall, and returns, by a hipped end, to the left gable end, which has a plain sash at first and second floors, plus a 2-light small-pane casement at the first floor, and a glazed verandah front. The street front has a moulded stone cornice and blocking course, and the parapet returns at each end to a central gable. The right return is plain, with a large brick stack. The rear wall has a 4-pane sash in deep reveals, to a slight cambered head; this front also has parapet and coping. The former service wing is hipped, in 2 storeys and with 3 windows, all plain sash, but at the right-hand end, near the main range, is a 2-light small-pane casement at first floor level, and a similar opening below. A large stack at the outer end. INTERIOR: not inspected. SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: the stone wall to the left of the verandah continues a short distance to a square gate pier with pyramidal capping, and beyond the opening with plank gateway a further pier and length of wall approx 2.7m high, with saddle-back coping, across the full width of the site. To the right of the frontage the boundary wall continues in garden wall bond brickwork incorporating a plank gateway, and returning along the flanks and rear of the site.

An earlier survival in an area mostly developed in the later C19 and early C20.
