Description
A terrace of fifteen houses located on King Georges Drive in Port Sunlight, built in 1913 by J. Lomax Simpson. The houses are roughcast with weatherboarding to the first floor, with brick and stone detailing on the wings and a roughcast first floor. The wings also feature timber-framed inner bays, all topped with a stone slate roof.
The terrace is two stories and seven bays long, with a jettied first floor. The three central bays project forward beneath a triple gable, and the end bays are asymmetrical. There are three-bay returns and five-bay wings, also with a jettied first floor. The wing to the left has a projecting, jettied, gabled first floor to the third bay, with a timber-framed gable, while the fourth gabled bay projects. A further bay breaks forward under a gable on the right-hand wing.
Windows are leaded casements, some featuring diamond patterns and others rectangular quarries. Most windows are four lights. The returns incorporate half-canted bay windows abutting projecting lateral stacks. Entrances have doors with small-paned lights. A lateral stack with a half-canted bay window is situated on the right wing.
