LANCASTER

SD4761NW ST MARY'S PARADE 1685-1/6/289 (East side) 18/02/70 Nos.1-9 (Odd)

GV II

Five houses. Mid C19. Squared coursed sandstone with slate roofs. Nos 1-5 and the left-hand bay of Nos 7 & 9 form a row of 3 storeys and 5 bays. The windows are glazing bar sashes with plain stone surrounds. Between the 1st and 2nd bays are paired doorways to Nos 1 & 3, with plain stone surrounds, cornice hoods, and 6-panel doors. The single doorway to No.5 is in the 3rd bay. To its right is a sashed window with a stone surround, probably a later alteration. The gutter is supported on stone corbels. Chimneys on gables and between bays 2 & 3 and bays 3 & 4. Part of Nos 7 & 9, at the right, is set back slightly and is of 2 storeys and 2 bays. The windows are similar to those of the main block, as is the doorway, which is in the left-hand bay. A projection rising above the ridge of the roof and abutting the gable of the taller part of the building contains a staircase. HISTORY: buildings shown on the site on the 5 feet to one mile OS map surveyed in 1845 differ in shape from the present houses, suggesting that they were built shortly after that date.
