This is a terrace of houses, built between 1839 and 1844 by George Basevi.

The buildings are constructed of brick, with a rusticated stucco finish to the ground floor. They are three storeys and have an attic and basement. Each house has a Doric porch, and a continuous balcony with iron railings runs along the front. The first-floor windows are set within stucco architraves. Numbers 44 and 45 project forward, featuring corner pilasters that rise through the first and second storeys.
