Description
Nos 1-9 (consecutive) with attached front walls and railings form a terrace of nine houses built in the mid-19th century, likely in the 1850s or 1860s. Numbers 1 and 2 have been combined into a single dwelling, and numbers 1-5 and 8 are now guest houses. The houses are constructed of yellow brick in a stretcher bond pattern, with some parts stuccoed or painted. The roofs are covered in Welsh slate or 20th-century tiles, and red brick stacks are present. The houses are arranged in handed pairs, with number 9 standing alone. Each house has three storeys plus a basement and attic, and features two bays. They each have steps leading down to a 20th-century basement entrance and a small-pane sash window. The ground floors are rusticated and have paired 20th-century doors with overlights in architraves incorporating pilasters, friezes, cornices, and swept blocking courses. Large, segmental-arched windows with rusticated voussoirs and tripartite sashes are also present. The upper floors have 4-pane sash windows set in eaved and shouldered architraves, with bracketed sills. The first floor windows are more elaborate, featuring cornices and pediments. The pairs of houses alternate between having a dentilled cornice with blocking course and a parapet. Flat-roofed dormers with 20th-century windows are present. Ridge stacks are located between the pairs. Number 8 has mid- to late-20th-century windows, and number 4 has mid- to late-20th-century shutters. Number 9 is slightly different in appearance, with a segmental-arched, voussoired doorway, a narrow sash window above on each floor, and a two-storey canted bay window with a frieze and cornice on the right side. Low, stuccoed brick walls with coping and square piers run in front of each house, and original cast-iron gates and railings with arrow-finialled bars remain at numbers 1-3, 6-7, and partly at number 9, where the top of the wall and gate piers have been rebuilt.
