Nos 4 & 6 ACREFIELD ROAD, built c.1833.
Architectural description
Originally a single house structurally detached from No. 2 and of two bays; built wholly of brick with slate roof and lead lined stone moulded gutter.. It has been a good deal altered with an added shop projecting on the left and a shop front on the right; behind the house also a large workshop used by Joshua Hayes, the printer, from c.1921.
Shorn of these additions the floor area of the original house was nearly as much as the combined areas of Nos. 8 & 10, so it was quite commodious. But so far as we can now make an assessment the design was very simple.
