Numbers 40-62 (Even) And Attached Railings

Numbers 40-62 (even) and attached railings consist of a terrace of twelve houses, likely dating from around 1817 to 1822 and built by James Goulden. The houses are constructed of yellow and brown stock brick with banded stucco to the ground floor, topped by Welsh slate mansard roofs and brick party-wall stacks. They follow a side-hall entrance plan with a staircase.

The houses are three storeys high, with a basement and attic dormers, each having two windows. Ground-floor openings are segmental and arched. Low steps lead to the entrances (numbers 42-50 on the right and numbers 52-60 on the left). The doorways feature fluted quarter-column jambs supporting a corniced head, with original three-panelled doors. Fanlights are present above the doors at numbers 44, 48, 54 and 58, featuring curved and radial glazing bars; the fanlights at numbers 40, 42, 46, 52, 54 and 60 are simpler in design. Windows are six-over-six sash windows throughout. Ground-floor windows have curved and radial glazing bars, while upper-floor windows are topped by gauged brick flat arches. The first floor windows have stucco sill bands and coupled iron-bracketed balconies, which are missing from numbers 40 and 44. The balconies feature cast-iron railings with a Vitruvian scroll and palmette pattern. The houses have plain parapets with stone coping. Attached cast-iron area railings have urn finials.
