PRESTON
SD5428NW FRENCHWOOD STREET 941-1/14/122 (South West side) Nos.36 AND 37
GV II
Pair of small town houses. c.1840, altered at the rear. Red brick in Flemish bond, with sandstone dressings and slate roof. Double-depth plan, No.36 double-fronted (and canted slightly back at bend in street), No.37 single-fronted, both with back extensions (that to No.36 recently rebuilt). Two storeys over cellars, 3+ 2 bays; with a rendered plinth, 1st floor sill-band, plain frieze and moulded gutter cornice; and a downspout slot at the angled junction. No.36 is almost symmetrical (the central openings offset slightly to the right), No.37 to the right has the doorway in the 1st bay; both doorways, up 2 altered steps, have moulded architraves with dentilled cornices on consoles, and 4-panel doors (the upper panels round-headed), with overlights; and No.36 has a lobby doorway at the left end, with a convex surround. All the windows are apparently unaltered unhorned 12-pane sashes with square panes, raised sills and wedge lintels; and there are cellar window gratings in the pavement beneath each ground-floor window. Ridge chimneys to No 36; end-wall chimneys on both slopes of No.37. INTERIORS not inspected. Very similar to Nos.38 and 39 which continue to the right, forming part of a formerly complete set of late Georgian lower-middle class town houses in this street.
