Description

Early C20 semi-detached buildings situated on the western side of North End Road. Positioned close
to the front of their plots these buildings sit beneath a gabled roof laid in slate, the ridgeline of
which runs parallel with the carriageway. A brick chimney stack, positioned centrally on the ridge,
breaks up the roofline. Two storeys in height, the upper storeys of each building are rendered,
while the ground floors are plain brick. This results in an attractive contrast of both colour and
texture. The buildings present very regular fenestration patterns to the road frontage as consisting
of entrance doors located within the bays located closest to each gable end and centrally positioned
two storey bays. These simple, but attractive buildings make a positive visual contribution to the
street. They retain much of their original form, and character and form part of a group of late C19
and early C20 buildings which mark a last flourish of development within the village just prior to the
First World War. Local Heritage Asset in conservation area (1).
