Description

Numbers 16 and 17 are two terraced houses built around 1792. They feature yellow stock brick, with the second and third floors rebuilt, and stucco ground floors that have moulded bands on the first floor. The buildings rise to four storeys and include basements, with three windows each. The doorways are round-arched and architraved, topped with cornice-heads, fanlights, and panelled doors. The windows have gauged brick flat arches above the sashes and architraved frames on the ground floor. The houses have parapets. The interiors have not been inspected. Attached to the properties are cast-iron railings with torch flambe and urn finials surrounding the areas.
