Number 12 And Attached Railings, Gate And Lamp Holder

Number 12 is a terraced house, likely built around 1728 by R Hughes and refaced in the late 19th century in a Georgian style. The front is of yellow stock brick with red brick dressings, although the right-hand return shows original brown brick. It has a tiled roof with dormers.

The house is three storeys high, with an attic and a two-storey, single-window projecting bay to the right. The main facade features moulded brick bands at floor levels, Doric brick pilasters rising through the first and second floors to support a brick dentil cornice and triglyphs in the frieze above the pilasters. A late 18th-century prostyle portico has Tower of Winds capitals to the columns and carries an entablature with a fluted frieze. The doorway has panelled reveals, a patterned radial fanlight, and a panelled door. There are slightly recessed sash windows with flat arches of gauged red brick, exposed boxing, and red brick aprons. A coped parapet has recessed panels, and the projecting bay has gauged brick flat arches over recessed sashes on the ground and first floors, with a moulded brick cornice below the parapet.

Inside, the entrance hall is panelled, with flat pilasters forming an archway to the staircase hall behind, all featuring box cornices and dadoes. The staircase has a twisted baluster design on open strings, with turned ends, fluted newels, and corresponding pilasters on the dado. The house has two rooms per floor, alongside a later wing to the side. The ground floor is fully panelled, with box cornices and dadoes, and fireplaces with tin-glazed tiled surrounds. The first floor has raised and fielded panelling with box cornices; the front room has a bolection-moulded fireplace with an early grate, and the rear room has an early 18th-century fireplace with an early 19th-century grate. The second floor has dado panelling to the landing and ovolo panelling to the rooms, with box cornices, the rear room having later cupboards in front. There are 19th-century grates throughout, and a closed-string, turned baluster stair leads to the third floor. The basement has turned and twisted balusters to the stair and plank doors.

Attached to the house are cast-iron railings with patterned standards, an early 20th-century wrought-iron gate with an overthrow, and a lamp-holder.
