Description

Numbers 184, 186, and 188 are three terraced houses built in the early 19th century. They are constructed from yellow stock brick and feature rusticated stucco on the ground floors, with a plain band on the first floor. The buildings rise four storeys and include a basement, with two windows on each house. The ground floor has round-arched openings, and the doorways are adorned with fanlights. Numbers 184 and 186 have fluted quarter columns that support cornice-heads. The recessed sash windows, which have glazing bars, are topped with gauged brick flat arches. There are cast-iron balconies on the first floor windows, and the buildings are capped with a parapet. The attached cast-iron railings feature torch flambe finials. The interiors have not been inspected.
