16 ACREFIELD ROAD, built between 1829-1835. Listed Grade II

Architectural description

A detached house on such a narrow site that the building extends from boundary to boundary and following these lines the front is not square with Acrefield Road. It is a very simple brick built house of 2-storeys, the roof is slate with the moulded stone cornice lined with lead as eaves gutter -as is common in Woolton at this date. Because of the narrowness of the site beside the front door is a second door to the entry; and the windows, one downstairs and 2 above -slightly shorter - were sashes.
