Description
This is a crescent of ten houses, numbered 3 to 12, built around 1835 to 1845, possibly by George Barman. The building is constructed of yellow brick, with a stuccoed ground floor featuring horizontal rustication and a stuccoed second floor with a cill band. Prominent Doric pilasters rise over the ground floor. A moulded parapet runs along the top, concealing the roof, which has eleven sets of ridge stacks. The crescent is curved with projecting blocks at each end (numbers 3 and 12) and a double projection in the centre (numbers 7 and 8), which carries the parapet. The parapet is partially pierced with balustrades and topped with decorative features (acroteria) at both ends and doubled brackets in the centre.
The houses are three storeys high with a basement, presenting a front with twenty windows, arranged in pairs. Pilasters flank the projecting blocks and a single pilaster is located centrally within the central projection. There are ten doorways, mostly round-headed, paired in the centre, to the left of each house on the right and to the right of each house on the left. Spearhead railings are flanking each doorway and surrounding the areas in front of the houses.
