Description
This is an early 19th century house of two storeys, built of grey brick and originally featuring a plain parapet now largely covered by climbing plants. The roof is slate, hipped in style. The house has five windows set in plain reveals. A slightly projecting central bay contains a doorway with a classical design, featuring Ionic columns and an entablature. The recessed panelled recess contains a door with five fielded panels, surmounted by an oblong fanlight with diagonal glazing bars. A cornice runs along the top. To the right is a recessed wing with a segmental carriage arch. Numbers 21 to 28 form a group.
