Description

This is an early 19th century terrace of red brick houses with a grey slate roof, located on Chapel Street in East Donyland. The brickwork is laid in a distinctive "rat trap" bond. The terrace originally comprised four window bays, with double-hung sash windows featuring glazing bars. Ground floor windows are topped with stucco arches and keystones. Numbers 1 and 7 are mid-19th century extensions to the original terrace.
