200-210, CAMBERWELL NEW ROAD SE5

This is an early to mid-19th century terrace of six houses, numbered 200 to 210, located on the south side of Camberwell New Road. The terrace is symmetrical in design, with each house originally having three storeys and a basement, and two windows wide. Houses 200 and 210 are slightly lower than the others. A screen wall and gateway mark a central division between houses 204 and 206. The construction is of stock brick with a stucco frieze, cornice, and blocking course, although the blocking course is missing from house 210. The ground floor features an arcade. Houses 202 to 208 have stuccoed bands at the first floor cill and above the arcading. Houses 200 and 210 are distinguished by their long first floor windows. The arcades incorporate gagged brick arches—rounded on the ground floor—leading to sash windows. While most houses have glazing bars, others have vertical bars. A set of four steps and a bridge, with decorative cast iron handrails, lead to the front doors. House 210 features a six-panel door with wooden pilasters, a cornice head, and a patterned fanlight. The other houses have five-panel doors with fluted quadrant pilasters, a mutuled cornice head, and a fanlight—the fanlight in house 206 being patterned. House 200 has a two-panel door within a modified entablature surround, and a one-bay right-hand extension.
