Description

This is an early 19th-century terraced house located on Chapel Street in the City of Westminster. It is two windows wide and four storeys high, with an attic mansard roof. The house is built of brick, with the ground floor channelled in stucco. The windows are square-headed, with sash glazing bars to the first floor. Around 1900, the ground floor windows were altered, and the original configuration was changed. A parapet runs along the roofline, and there are 20th-century balconettes to the first floor. A pedimented dormer window is present in the mansard roof. Wrought iron area railings are situated at the front. The building is included on the list specifically for its group value.
