Description

A terrace of three estate houses, dating from approximately 1870 to 1875. The buildings are constructed from knapped flint with red brick dressings and have pantile roofs with tiled copings to the gable ends. There are two symmetrical red brick axial stacks, one to the right and one to the left of the centre.

The terrace comprises three houses of a double-depth plan. The front two rooms of the central house, featuring its central entrance, and the front rooms of the houses on either side are within the main range. The doorways to the end houses are set back in single bay projections. Service rooms are likely located at the rear, with a detached outhouse range running parallel behind the main buildings.

The front elevation has a symmetrical arrangement of one bay, four bays, and one bay, with the end bays set back. Features include a moulded brick eaves cornice and a moulded brick and knapped flint band at first-floor level, along with brick pilaster quoins. The original windows are two-light iron-frame casements (single-light on the recessed ends), featuring small panes arranged to form pointed arches at the top. These are set in chamfered brick openings with moulded brick hoodmoulds. The central doorway and the doorways in the recessed ends also have chamfered brick openings with brick hoodmoulds, with plank doors. Above the central doorway is a carved stone panel displaying armorial bearings, framed in chamfered brick with a hoodmould.

The rear and end elevations feature similar windows, with two lights on the ground floor and single lights on the first floor, set in segmental-headed openings. The first-floor windows in the gable ends are blind. The detached outhouse range at the rear is contemporary, constructed from flint rubble with a pantile, gable-ended roof.

The interior has not been inspected.
