Description

This is a terrace of six houses built in the early 19th century and located on the west side of Lower Belgrave Street in the City of Westminster. The houses are constructed of brick with the ground floors finished in channelled stucco. The roofs are hidden from view. Each house has two windows and stands four storeys high. The ground floor features arched windows and doorways. Above these are square-headed windows with gauged heads; the windows in No. 49 retain their original sash windows with glazing bars, while the others mostly have plate glass. First-floor windows are French casements, and there are cast iron balconies. The houses have parapets and cast iron area railings.
