GV II

House in row. Mid to late C18, but some of rear range may be
early C18. Flemish bond brickwork front, squared stone rear,
asbestos-cement slate roof.
PLAN: set on a slightly wedge-shaped site at the junction with
Trinity Road, this property is slightly set back from No.1
Trinity Road (qv) adjoining; it has a high parapet front to a
steep roof with half-hip to the left, and a narrow rear range
with hipped end.
EXTERIOR: 3 storeys and attic, 2 windows; at second floor
2-light casements with horizontal glazing bars, at first floor
plain sashes, these all to painted brick voussoirs. Ground
floor has a C20 steel casement in plat surrounds beneath
splayed painted brick voussoirs with 2 keystones.
To the left, on 4 stone steps, with rendered plinth carried
across at the same level, a panelled door with small transom
light, in a deep reveal, and with painted brick voussoirs with
keystone. A slight cornice under the blocking course with
coped parapet. To the right, in the set-back to the adjoining
property, is a lead down-pipe with bold hopper-head and a
series of fixing cleats.
The left gable, rising above No.11 (qv) has a small 2-light
casement, and there is a brick stack to the right party wall.
The rear wing has a narrow 3-storey end wall in stone, with a
single 2-light casement at first and second floors.
The RCHME entry (Mon.85) says "Houses, Nos 11, 12 are of three
storeys and attics and have bow windows to the first floor",
but it is difficult to reconcile this with what exists; it
seems most unlikely that this had a first-floor bow, but it is
possible that the odd double-keyed arch at the ground floor
covered a projecting element before being replaced with the
steel casement.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
