116 AND 118, GREENFIELD ROAD B17

This is a late 18th-century house, remodelled in the early 19th century. It is constructed of stucco and comprises two properties, 116 and 118, on Greenfield Road. Number 116, the left-hand section, was added in the late 19th century and is set back and lower than the right-hand part, which shares a roofline with number 118. The ground floor of number 116 features an altered central doorcase with reeding within a modern porch, and two windows with Tudor hoodmoulds. The first floor has three casement windows without hoodmoulds and bargeboarded eaves. Number 118 is three bays wide, with gables on the outside bays, and an additional bay on the left that is under the same roof as part of number 116. Ground- and first-floor windows are tripartite casements with Tudor hoodmoulds, except on the right-hand side, where a canted bay window extends through both storeys, being smaller on the first floor than on the ground floor. Number 118 also has bargeboarded eaves. A porch now provides access on the right-hand return, but the original main entrance was within a reeded doorcase with a flat moulded hood, now located at the back of the house. The house was the home of the painter David Cox (1783-1859) from 1841 until his death.
