Description

No. 18 is a building from the later 19th century with a rendered facade. It features wide bracketed eaves and a slate roof, standing three storeys tall with a dormer and a basement. The front has two windows, while the southeast side includes a three-light sash window above a three-storey angular bay. The windows are arched and have unbarred sashes. The entrance is a round-arched door with a segmental hood supported by moulded consoles, accompanied by a plain fanlight. There are steps leading up to the door, which are adorned with an elaborate handrail. At the rear, there is an earlier full-height bow window. The property is also enclosed by iron area railings.
