Description

These are early 18th-century railings associated with No. 5 White’s Row. The building is constructed of brick with a pantiled and slate mansard roof. It has three storeys, a basement, and a dormer. The front has five windows with sash glazing in flush frames, set under red brick segmental arches. A wooden doorcase is present, incorporating an architrave with ornamental scrolls and a carved head. Above the doorcase are carved consoles and a moulded cornice. Stone steps lead to wrought iron railings at the entrance.
