Number 9 And Attached Wall, Railings And Gate

Number 9 is a detached studio house built in 1879 by Batterbury and Huxley for Thomas Collier, a watercolour artist. It is constructed of red brick and features a plain band at the first floor level. The house has a tiled roof with dormers, tall slab chimney-stacks, and a coved eaves cornice. It is two storeys high, with an attic and semi-basement, and has four windows. The entrance is round-arched and made of rubbed brick, flanked by thin panelled pilasters that have enriched consoles supporting a festooned frieze with a pediment. The entrance includes panelled doors and a fanlight with a lamp-holder. The windows have gauged brick segmental arches with keystones and thin dripmoulds above the recessed sashes. The interior has not been inspected.

The property also features subsidiary elements, including an attached low stone-coped brick wall with cast-iron railings that have spearhead finials. The gate piers are topped with stone entablatures, each featuring a sculptured heraldic device of a lion supporting a castle above a Tudor rose, dated 1508, along with a cast-iron gate.
