TQ 3418 8072; (J. Dixon); historic building survey; 6 January 2005; Sterling Partners; DOK05
A locally listed yellow brick townhouse, thought to have been constructed between the early 1840s and the early 1870s, was recorded prior to the development of the site. It was flat fronted and three storeys high with a basement. It featured sash and case segmental headed windows and a decorative doorcase with scrolled consoles. Each floor originally contained two rooms but had been later subdivided into three rooms. The basement also incorporated four coal cellars beneath the street at the front of the building and an adjoining 20th-century shed at the back of the building. The positions of the timber king-post roof trusses were noted and the profiles of skirting board, door surround and banister mouldings were recorded.
