Description
A terrace of seven houses, now offices, built between approximately 1840 and 1860. The houses are constructed of pink-grey brick in Flemish bond, with timber doorcases and modillion eaves cornices, and brick stacks rising from slate roofs. Cast-iron railings are set on brick plinths with painted stone coping.
All the houses are three storeys high, taller than the adjacent buildings, and Numbers 1, 2, and 3 have basements. Number 1 has three first-floor windows, while the others have two. Numbers 1 and 2 feature plain pilaster doorcases with moulded cornice hoods supported on carved and grooved consoles, panelled reveals, and doors consisting of six raised and fielded panels with overlights. The windows are 12-pane sashes, except for the first-floor windows of Number 2, which have single-pane lower sashes. A painted stone sill band runs across the first-floor windows, with painted stone sills on the other windows. Number 3 has a plain doorcase with a moulded cornice hood on scrolled grooved consoles, leading to a four-panel door with a plain overlight. The ground and first-floor windows are sashes with six panes at the top and one at the bottom; the first-floor windows have a painted stone sill band. The second-floor windows are 12-pane sashes with painted stone sills. A chamfered band runs along the ground floor. Numbers 4 and 5 have plain doorcases with moulded cornice hoods on bulbous grooved consoles, four-panel doors, and divided overlights. All windows are single-pane sashes with painted stone sills and slightly cambered arches. Number 6 features a plain doorcase with a cornice hood on consoles and jewel stops on the frieze blocks, along with a four-panel door and divided overlight. Number 7 has a Doric doorcase, which appears to be reused, with fluted attached columns, a mutule cornice, and a replacement six-panel door with an overlight. Canted bay windows are located to the right of the doorcases, with colonnette mullions and cornices on jewel-stopped modillions. Number 6 has 12-pane sashes on the first floor and squat six-pane sashes on the second floor, while Number 7 has single-pane sashes throughout. A continuous sill band runs along the first floor, with painted stone sills elsewhere. The interior of the buildings was not inspected at the time of listing. The garden gates and railings are turned with spearhead tips, and the gate standards are openwork panels incorporating an anthemion motif, except for those at Number 6, which are turned and bulbous, with ball finials.
