Rock Place

A terrace of six houses built in the early to mid-19th century and located on Holloway Hill in Godalming. The houses are constructed of coursed squared stone, finely pointed, with rubble-stone returns. They have Welsh slate roofs. Each house is two storeys high and one bay wide, arranged in mirrored pairs, with the front doors of numbers 20 and 22, and 24 and 26 being paired. Rendered pilaster strips mark the ends of the terrace. The front doors consist of six flush panels within wooden frames, each originally sheltered by a gabled hood. Number 20 now has a flat-roofed open porch, and number 18 features a glazed, gabled porch. The windows are 3-light, small-pane, iron-framed casements with wedge lintels incorporating incised keystones; the first-floor windows are shorter than those on the ground floor. Chimneys are located on the front and rear roof slopes between numbers 18 and 20, 22 and 24, and 26 and 28. To the rear, board back doors are paired and sheltered by Welsh slate, pent-roofed porches, each incorporating a small windowed WC. The rear also features segmental brick arch-headed windows with 2-light leaded casements, originally one window to each floor per cottage, though four slightly taller windows have since been inserted in the same style. The right return displays brick quoins and a 3-light leaded window to the first floor on the left side.
