Homeville

Terrace of three houses, built c.1840. Central five-bay two-storey house with flat-roofed entrance porch and gablets, flanked by four-bay two-storey houses having gabled advanced two-bay three-storey blocks with canted bays to east and west. Pitched slate and artificial slate roofs with rendered chimneystacks, timber bargeboards to gables and gablets and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls with decorative recesses to gablets and continuous sill courses to first floor and at second floor level to gabled bays. Square-headed window openings with painted sills and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows under label-mouldings with decorative stops. Square-headed door openings with half-glazed timber doors and overlights under label mouldings. Cast-iron pedestrian gates, piers and railings on rendered boundary walls to front of site.

A delightful terrace which contrasts with the more regularly formed houses in the streetscape. The projecting bays, windows, and porch add variety and depth to both plan and facade, while the roofline is broken by the two- and three-storey sections, and by the gables and gablets. The decorative render details and carved timber bargeboards add to its picturesque character.
