What is recorded here
Terrace of four two-bay two-storey houses, built c.1890, with full-height canted bays and two-storey over basement returns to rear. Pitched slate and artificial slate roofs with red brick corbelled chimneystacks, cast-iron rainwater goods and recent rooflights and solar panels to west house. Smooth rendered walls with moulded render continuous sill course at first floor level. Square-headed window openings with one-over-one timber sliding sash windows. Some houses with replacement uPVC windows. Round-headed recessed door opening with fanlights, sidelights, half-glazed timber doors, polychromatic tiled and limestone thresholds. Some houses with replacement doors. Smooth rendered boundary walls surmounted by wrought-iron railings with square-profile piers to wrought-iron pedestrian gates. Vehicular gateway to west house.
This terrace is a good example of late-nineteenth-century suburban housing. The canted bays enliven the regular form, while the retention of original fabric adds further interest. The polychromatic tiled thresholds add an attractive splash of colour to the group.
