What is recorded here
End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey house with dormer attic, built 1843. One of a terrace of four. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystacks having polygonal clay pots. Roughcast walls with rendered plinth. Square-headed window openings with painted sills, rendered reveals, and one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows; square-headed dormer window openings with replacement windows. Square-headed door opening, rendered surround with pilasters, capitals, lintel with keystone, and timber panelled door with bolection mouldings and overlight. Set back from road in own grounds. Gateway with pair of rendered piers and replacement gate.
This terraced house retains its early form and character. The simple but effective doorcase and the Classically-detailed bay window add interest to the otherwise restrained façade. Church Terrace dates from the period when Moville emerged as a fashionable seaside resort and is unusual in that it was built in phases, rather than as a single development, with each house tailored to the specific requirements of the original owner. The house, and its immediate neighbour (40809046), makes a positive contribution to the streetscape.
