What is recorded here

End-of-terrace three-bay three-storey over basement house, built in 1863 as one of an (originally) uniform row of twelve, and now divided into apartments. To the east there is an almost full-width single-storey porch projection. The façade is finished in brick, painted brick and painted render, with granite quoins and moulded window surrounds, and a parapet with eaves cornice. To the east elevation are moulded pilasters, whilst the parapet to this side has a centrally positioned pediment. The roof is hidden behind the parapet and has rendered chimneystacks. The porch’s roof is also hidden, in this instance behind a more decorative pierced parapet. The entrance is to the north face of the porch and consists of a panelled timber door, three-quarter Corinthian column ‘jambs’, entablature with cornice, and plain semi-circular fanlight. The windows are a mixture of flat-headed and semi-circular headed and have and variety of one over one, one over four and four over four timber sash frames, with replacement top-hung timber frames to some of the basement windows. The surrounds to the first floor windows incorporate cornice-like hoods on decorative brackets. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The building faces onto a street but is separated from it by a relatively small garden enclosed with cast-iron railings and a matching gate.
