Number 20 And Attached Railings

Number 20 is a terraced house built around 1720, featuring brown brick with a red brick band at the first floor level and a tiled mansard roof with dormers. The building has three storeys, an attic, and a basement, with three windows on the façade. The entrance boasts an architraved doorcase with an enriched console-bracketed hood, a fanlight with a grille, and a panelled door. The windows are segmental-arched, made of gauged red brick, and slightly recessed sashes with exposed boxing. A brick and stone cornice adorns the parapet, and there is a lead lion mask rainwater head and pipe on the left side.

Inside, the entrance hall features ovolo-moulded panelling, box cornices, and dado rails. An arched opening, created with early 18th-century cornice brackets added by Mr. White in the early 20th century, leads to the staircase hall, which has similar panelling and an open string staircase with twisted balusters, corresponding dadoes, ramped handrails, and double newels. Each floor contains two principal rooms and a rear closet. The ground floor includes full-height panelling, box cornices, shutters, dado rails, and a marble fireplace set with faience tiles. The rear room and closet are also fully panelled, with the former featuring a corner fireplace. The first floor has full-height ovolo-moulded panelling, box cornices, and dadoes, with the two rooms connected by double doors and retaining shutters. The second floor has unmoulded panelling, cornice, and dado rails, along with early 18th-century fireplaces; the front room has cupboards on either side with H-hinges. The attic on the third floor is accessed by a closed string, turned baluster stair and retains 18th-century cupboards. The basement is reached by a closed string turned baluster stair, with the lower part renewed and inset with tiles by Anne Angus. This house is a remarkably complete and exemplary example of an early 18th-century interior.

Additionally, there are attached cast-iron railings to the area, featuring early 20th-century wrought-iron standards flanking the entrance. Historically, this building was home to the Victorian architect Thomas Garner and stained glass artist Henry Holiday.
