Nos 18 and 18a Including Walls and Railings

Nos. 18 and 18A, including the walls and railings, are a pair of dwellings, now flats, built in the late 1880s by William Willett. The buildings are constructed from yellow stock bricks and feature extensive use of moulded and incised bricks for the cornice, strings, lintels, and quoins. They have hipped slate roofs and tall chimneys with moulded caps flanking the central bay on the north elevation.

The buildings are situated on a corner site, with No. 18A facing Eaton Road and No. 63 Tisbury Road on the west side. The north front has three storeys plus an attic over a basement, with a two-storey range end bay on the right. The facade has irregular fenestration with a 4:1 bay arrangement, segmental-headed window openings, and cills supported by shaped brackets. Most of the original sash windows do not have glazing bars, except for 20th-century windows inserted in the centre of the second floor and on the ground floor in the end bay on the right. The entrance is located in the second bay from the left, featuring a round-arched opening made of moulded and painted brick supported by square piers with incised decoration and ornate capitals. It includes a fanlight with the original lamp, an original panelled door with sidelights, and half-glazed inner double doors.

The left return onto Norton Road has a 1:3:1:3 bay arrangement with full-height canted bays and gabled dormers. The entrance to No. 18A is in the fourth bay on the right, accessed through an original round-arched opening of moulded brick with a panelled door and tessellated pavement. The entrance to No. 63 Tisbury Road is in the end bay on the left, with detailing similar to that of No. 18 Eaton Road. The walls extend from the entrances along the road frontage as dwarf walls, with original cast-iron railings between square piers topped with moulded caps. The interiors have not been seen but are believed to contain original features similar to those in No. 16 Eaton Road. This pair of dwellings is part of a notable group of substantial houses on the Willett estate, alongside Nos. 14 and 16 Eaton Road.
