Listing: Locally listed in 2004. Built in the late 18th century, this
three storey, red brick terrace property has a plain tile roof with surviving
external cornice. There is a ground floor bay window on which a first
floor bay window has been added at some stage. Originally a private town
house, the ground floor is now a take-away, with residential accommodation on
the upper floors. Group value with adjacent listed buildings.
Comment: The building is the middle one in the photo above,
which shows its group value. But for local listing purposes this house
should also qualify in its own right. This building and its group is part
of the historic core of Bilston; it is an important part of the view from around
St. Leonard's church; and it lies at the start of a road full of buildings of
historic (and architectural) interest.
