Nos. 2-92, with Attached Walls, Fences and Steps

Nos. 2–92, with attached walls, fences, and steps is a development of eight short terraces, two pairs of houses and flats, and a detached block of two flats, built between 1979 and 1982. Designed by Ralph Erskine's Arkitektkontor, with Vernon Gracie as site architect, it occupies a steeply sloping site. The construction is of orange/red brick, using metric modular brickwork with carefully toned mortar, and concrete block internal walls. The roofs are covered with Marley Modern tiles. The houses are carefully positioned to follow the contours of the land and are angled to take advantage of the views. The flats are primarily located at the south-eastern end, with a detached block for Nos. 24 and 26. Bright green balconies are particularly prominent on Nos. 52 and 70. The sloping ground is used to create split-level units, with kitchen windows at ground level on the north side. Black weatherboarding is used on the north-west end, extended as fencing, and white weatherboarding on the south-east with bird boxes on the gables. Projecting timber balconies are present at the first floor of the upper flat units. Prominent projecting eaves and suspended first-floor planting boxes are also features. The north-facing entrance has boldly coloured doors alongside triangular staircase windows, and narrow eaves windows to the first floor, above a projecting brown timber band carrying heating pipes. Weatherboarded outshuts project from the end units, while the others have brown timber door hoods suspended from the deep eaves. Timber windows are used throughout, with larger windows to the south featuring aluminium opening lights. The development incorporates black, brown, and green fences as an integral part of its design, and prominent red brick walls and green or brown fences link each group of houses. Boundary walls are present at Nos. 2, 10, and 16, while Nos. 76–8 have green fences and a pergola. Steep steps, with retaining walls between rows, are a characteristic feature, effectively exploiting the spectacular views. The history and sources for this development are related to those of Nos. 1–75 Dunn Terrace.
