Description

No. 86 is a terrace house dating from around 1780, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed from limestone ashlar and has a concrete tile roof. The house is narrow and single-depth, standing three storeys high, likely raised from two storeys, and includes a basement.

The exterior features two bays with sash windows: twelve-pane windows with plain reveals in the attic, twelve-pane windows in raised surrounds with a moulded outer edge on the first and ground floors, and a fielded six-panel door to the left, which has a similar surround and a floating cornice. There is a plinth, a platband at the first floor, and a moulded cornice below the attic. To the right, there is a high coped gable with a deep stack from the former party wall, while to the left, the property is crudely toothed to the adjacent No. 88. The rear has a single bay.

Across the front, there are iron railings, which alternate between hooped and straight, set on a coped wall. There are a pair of square piers to the left and a single pier to the right, with a dwarf wall returning to the front. The interior has not been inspected.
