house — Goldsmith Terrace

End-of-terrace three-bay three-storey former house, built in 1863 as one of an (originally) uniform row of twelve, now is use as offices and a shop. To the west there is a full-width single-storey former porch projection. The façade is finished in brick and painted render with moulded quoins and window surrounds, and a parapet with eaves cornice. The roof is hidden behind the parapet and has a rendered chimneystack. There are two entrances, one to the porch and one to the eastern end. The latter entrance appears to be a later insertion in place of a window, and has a panelled timber door, three-quarter Tuscan column ‘jambs’, entablature with cornice, and semi-circular fanlight, whilst the entrance to the former porch has a c.1990s mainly glazed double door with semi-circular fanlight. Judging from the property at the opposite end of the terrace, the eastern entrance’s door, ‘jambs’ and entablature may have been taken from that of the porch. The shopfront is in timber and dates from c.1995. The windows are a mixture of flat-headed and segmental-headed and most have replacement top-hung timber frames. The surrounds to the first floor windows incorporate cornice-like hoods on decorative brackets. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The building has a street frontage, the original front garden having been paved over.
