What is recorded here

Terraced three-bay three-storey over basement house, built c.1870. The building is finished in lined and painted render. The raised ground floor is reached by a pair of sweeping stairs with wrought-iron railings; these rise to a shared entrance platform which serves both this and the adjoining house. The door has semi-circular headed sidelights and is set within a semi-circular headed opening; these are framed with panelled pilasters which support the moulded archivolts. Window openings are flat-headed with one over one uPVC frames. First floor has a canted oriel window with a panelled base. The pitched roof is finished in slate with cast-iron rainwater goods; chimneystacks are rendered and have corbelled caps and clay pots. The houses are set back from the promenade behind wrought-iron railings.

Somewhat austere, but with much site presence, this house is part of a four group terrace which makes a valuable contribution to Bray’s sea front. Despite many replacement windows this property has retained many original features.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
