The Department's description

Second house from left in a terrace of seven three storey/ two bay late 19th houses on N side of Bridge Street.

Pitched artificial slate roof with paired corbels to overhanging timber eaves. Single modern brick chimney to right end of ridge. Smooth cement rendered front wall.

Front elevation faces S to Bridge Street and is two windows wide to its upper floors. All windows are modern units with top-hung transoms. Ground floor of front elevation has a door at left and a single window to its right (offset on upper floor). Modern door is eight panelled and has a transom light and a pair of reproduction timber consoles supporting a small timber canopy.

Right (E) gable abuts adjacent property (HB14/12/004C).
Left (W) gable abuts adjacent property (HB14/12/004A).

Rear (N) is smooth cement rendered and abutted to right by a two storey return. Remaining wall at ground floor left has a modern 1/1 window, with similar directly above to first and second floors. Between first and second floors at right is a similar stairwell window. Rear return has a pitched artificial slate roof. Its end gable (to alley) has a modern window at ground floor (grille over), its right cheek is the yard wall and its left cheek has a modern door and window to left and two modern windows at first floor left. Rear yard has a wire mesh gate to alley.

UAHS state that this terrace was erected c1840 but it does not appear on the 1862 OS map. Architectural detailing would suggest it was erected in the late 19thC. The HMBB first survey slide shows this building to have modern windows. The HMBB first survey card states that these properties originally had slated roofs, brick walls with contrasting brick dressings to windows. Sash windows with horns and panelled doors with plain transoms.
