37 and 38, Avenham Road

37 and 38 Avenham Road are a pair of town houses, likely built between 1822 and 1825, with some alterations. They are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring sandstone dressings and a slate roof. Each house has a double-depth plan, is single-fronted, and includes a back extension. The buildings are two storeys high with cellars, displaying a layout of 2+2 bays, a plain frieze, and a moulded cornice.

The doorways are positioned to the left of each house, with No.37 accessed by three steps and No.38 by four steps. No.37 features a doorcase with engaged Tuscan columns, square abaci, a plain frieze, and a prominent moulded cornice that slightly overlaps with No.36 to the left. It has plain jambs with imposts, an elliptical fanlight, and a six-panel door. In contrast, No.38 has a round-headed doorway with an architrave that includes set-in Tuscan quarter-columns, a plain lintel, and a semicircular fanlight, along with a lobby doorway featuring a wedge lintel immediately to the left of the steps.

The windows on both houses have raised sills and wedge lintels, all are sashed without glazing bars, except for the ground floor of No.38 which has altered glazing. The windows at No.37 are unhorned. Each house has two chimneys, one on each side of the ridge. The rear and interiors were not inspected. It is likely that No.37 was designed for owner-occupation while No.38 was intended for tenancy. These houses closely resemble Nos.39 and 40 to the right.
