Group Description
7-10 Park Street (consec.)
A terrace of four cottages, designed as two symmetrical pairs, on a site sloping to the left and facing south to Park Street. Notwithstanding the slope of the site the whole terrace in under one uniform roof, the left pair having about 1 m of blank stonework between the upper windows and the eaves. The terrace constitutes a four-window range in uncoursed grey shaley stone with roof partially of small random slates but mostly restored, and a tile ridge; each pair has a short mid chimney in stone. At the centre is a date-stone reading 'Wm Evans Proprietor / Ed Roberts On Davies / Masons / Rt Roberts Carpenter / 1834'.
The window openings are approximately square with segmental stone heads and slate sills. Three of the openings retain their 12-pane two-light casements. Timber lintel to the door of no. 7, stone lintels elsewhere. Two doors restored as boarded heck doors.
The terrace retains a uniform set of front iron railings and gates, with a low stone wall and stone gate-piers.
