Terrace containing four two-bay two-storey houses, built c.1865. The typical house is finished in lined and painted render. The panelled front door is flanked with panelled pilasters with console brackets which support a projecting cornice and has a plain fanlight and all are set within a semi-circular headed opening. The house to the west side has a later canted two-storey bay. Window openings are all flat-headed and have a mixture of two over two timber sash and uPVC frames. The pitched roof is finished with slate and a mixture of uPVC and cast-iron rainwater goods. The terrace is slightly set back behind a low rubble granite wall.

A modest yet solid short terrace of four houses which reinforce the historic character of the streetscape.
