9, 10, 11, SOUTH PARADE (See details for further address information)

A terrace of five houses, now offices, dating from the early 19th century with later alterations. The buildings are constructed of stucco with painted stone dressings and have slate and concrete tile roofs. The terrace is approximately symmetrical in its design, with five bays and a narrow recessed bay to the far left. The central bay is taller and features a pediment. The outer bays, numbers 9 and 12a, have matching elevations. The ground floor of each has a raised and fielded panelled door, above which is an overlight with radial glazing set within a doorcase with panelled pilasters, a plain frieze, and a moulded cornice. To the right of the door is a 16-pane sash window with a projecting sill. Above each, a full-height tripartite bow window features unequal 15 and 5 pane sashes, a simple bowed ironwork balcony, and a moulded cornice. The second floor of 12a has an unequal 9-pane sash and the second floor of No 9 has a 20th-century 9-pane window, both with projecting sills. The narrow bay to the left of No 9 has a plank door below a segmental arch on the ground floor, and two blind openings with projecting sills above. Numbers 10 and 12 also have matching elevations, except on the ground floor. No 10 has a 16-pane sash window with a projecting sill to the left and doorcase containing a 6-panelled door below a traceried fanlight within a moulded archivolt, set in a Doric doorcase with attached columns, triglyphed frieze, and moulded cornice to the right. No 12 has a similar 20th-century door and a 20th-century tripartite window with 12 and 8 pane sashes over panelled aprons, and a moulded cornice to the right. Above these houses, a 12-pane sash window is positioned over the door, and a central 16-pane sash window is on the first floor. A central 9-pane window is on the second floor – an unequal sash to No 10, and a 20th-century window to No 12. All windows have projecting sills. The central bay, No 11, has a doorcase to the left, which adjoins that of No 10 and forms a pair, incorporating a 6-raised and fielded panelled door and a plain fanlight. The centre of number 11 features a two-storey bow with a tripartite sash window with glazing bars and a projecting sill, and to the right, a full-height blind recess. Above this are a similar window to the central bow flanked by blind recesses, all on a continuous sill band. The second floor has a central tripartite window with unequal 9 and 6 pane sashes and a projecting sill. The overhanging eaves have paired gutter brackets to all houses except No 11, which has a simple pediment with paired brackets to the eaves band and plain copings to the gable.
