Numbers 17 and 18 and Attached Railings

Numbers 17 and 18 are terraced houses built around 1835. They are constructed from yellow brick set in Flemish bond with stucco, and their roofs are obscured by a parapet. The houses are three storeys high, with a basement and three windows each, and they are double-fronted. All openings feature gauged brick heads. The round-arched entrance has a doorcase with a cornice, a moulded archivolt, and a fanlight with decorative glazing. Number 18 has a panelled door of original design. The ground-floor windows are round-arched, and there is a sill band at the first floor. The upper windows are flat-arched, with those on the first floor set back under round arches of gauged brick that are linked by springing bands. The sashes are of original design, featuring intersecting glazing bars on the ground floor of number 17 and on both the ground and first floors of number 18. The parapet displays brickwork that emulates triglyphs and guttae. The upper storeys appear to have been rebuilt. There are cast-iron railings surrounding the area.
