GV II
Large town house, now office. 1830-31, for the Rev.Roger Carus-Wilson, Vicar of Preston; altered. Red brick, mostly in English garden wall bond, but the facade apparently of hand-made brick with unusual bonding at ground floor; with sandstone dressings and slate roof. Long rectangular plan at right-angles to street, with short wing at rear right-hand corner. Three storeys over basement; the 4-bay facade (which may be a late C19 remodelling) has broad banded brick pilasters between the openings at ground floor (the bands 4 courses deep and the middle courses composed of small headers), a broad 1st-floor string course, coupled corner pilasters to the upper floors (of brick with stone bases and caps), a deep frieze and prominent moulded cornice. The doorway in the 3rd bay (approached by 3 steps with nosings, the 2nd step with boot-scrapers) has a plain stone surround with panelled reveals, and a recessed panelled door with egg-and-dart decoration to the lintel and a plain rectangular overlight. The windows are sashed without glazing bars, those at ground floor with panelled aprons, those at 1st floor with cornices on consoles, and those at 2nd floor square, with raised sills. Hipped roof with 2 receding ridges, one chimney at the right-hand side. Rear: 2-storey wing attached to right-hand corner, with wagon archway through to rear courtyard. INTERIOR: open-well staircase with slender moulded stick balusters and wreathed mahogany handrail, the well with a Vitruvian-scroll and a frieze with wreaths.
