Description

This is a detached house dating from approximately 1825 to 1828, situated within Cloudesley Square. A 20th-century three-storey single-bay extension and a further single-storey extension to the left have been added. The house is built of yellow and brown stock bricks in a Flemish bond pattern, with simple stucco dressings and banded stucco to the ground floor. The roof is hidden behind a parapet, with exposed brick stacks.

The building is three stories high and has a double-fronted, three-window facade, alongside the extensions. It features a central-hall entrance plan. Steps lead to the central bay, where the entrance is framed by Doric, half-fluted column jambs supporting a corniced head, above a 20th-century panelled door and a plain fanlight. The ground-floor windows are round-arched sashes with curved and radial glazing bars. The upper floors have gauged brick flat arches above 6/6 sash windows. A stucco sill band runs to the full-length sashes on the first floor, set in arched recesses linked by stucco impost bands and featuring a continuous balcony with wrought-iron railings. The house has a plain brick parapet with stone coping. Attached cast-iron area railings complete the exterior.
