Numbers 2-26 And Railings To Numbers 10 And 20

This is a terrace of thirteen houses located on Leverton Street, built around 1845. The houses are constructed of painted stucco over brickwork with slate roofs. Each house is one window wide and two rooms deep, arranged over two storeys. A first-floor band and moulded cornices are visible, with the cornices stepping to reflect the rising ground to the north. Pilaster strips project from the first floor between numbers 2 and 10, and between numbers 18 and 26, while recessed panels separate numbers 10 and 18. The windows are margin-light sashes set within moulded architraves; those on the first floor have console brackets and surviving anthemion cast-iron decoration to the sills of numbers 2, 4, 6, 10, 12, 14, and 20. Each house has a door with a rectangular top light to its right, with original doors surviving at numbers 4, 10, 12, and 14. The interiors were not inspected, but some are noted to retain unusual plaster decoration. The terrace of houses collectively forms a pleasing, small-scale group with distinctive decorative features rarely seen in London. Railings are present to numbers 10 and 20.
