Attached house. 1763-4. Built by Benjamin Probert and Robert
Comfort, in the style of Thomas Paty. Red brick with limestone
dressings, brick party wall stacks and a pantile double-depth
roof. Double-depth plan. Mid Georgian style. 3 storeys, attic
and basement; 2-window range. Articulated by rusticated
pilaster strips to a moulded coping. Left-hand doorway has a
bracketed pediment to a Gibbs suround with split key and
separate angled voussoirs, rectangular overlight with oval
metal glazing bars and a 6-panel door. Windows, set to the
right of the entrance, have 5 stepped voussoirs to 2/2-pane
ground-floor sashes in flush frames, 6/6-panes above, with
thick glazing bars on the second floor, and a hipped dormer.
Steps down to open basement areas, and arched cellars beneath
the deep flagged pavement. The rear elevation has a
semicircular-arched stair light. INTERIOR not inspected.
Various speculative builders were involved using designs
similar to those employed by Thomas Paty.
