1-11, Woodrouffe Terrace

The terrace at 1-11 Woodrouffe Terrace comprises eleven early 1850s to late 1850s houses, with two further houses on London Road, one of which is now a doctor's surgery. The construction is of Flemish bond brickwork, with light brick headers, a chamfered plinth, and painted stone dressings. Features include V-jointed quoins at the corner with London Road, and a modillioned eaves cornice. The roofs are of mixed materials, primarily slate, with some skylights and original and rebuilt shared ridge brick chimney stacks, several of which are hipped at the angles.

Each house is two storeys high, originally with two bays, except for numbers 10 and 11, which have three bays. Most houses have a panelled front door, positioned on the left or right, with central doors on the three-bay houses; the doors are mostly 20th-century replacements, set within antis surrounds and radial fanlights, all contained within segmental-arched brick reveals. Number 1 has a blocked doorway which may have been different from the others and is now part of number 48 London Road. A 20th-century doorway has also been inserted where a window once stood, to create number 1A. The London Road elevation includes numbers 46 and 48, with number 48 having a return front onto Woodrouffe Terrace. Right-panelled doors with overlights are set within prostyle Ionic porches, approached by steps. The ground floor has sash windows, with a paired window at number 46. The upper floors originally had sash windows but now have 20th-century casements, set within stone architraves, with eared architraves at number 48.

The interiors of the houses have not been inspected. Historical records indicate the terrace was not listed in the 1851 census. Asquith's 1853 survey of Carlisle showed only six houses extending as far as St Nicholas Street. The 1858 directory documented numbering up to number 10, and the 1861 census revealed the complete terrace up to number 11 (missing number 1). The 1865 Ordnance Survey map depicts the complete terrace and the properties fronting onto London Road. The rounded corner of number 11 is further described under numbers 5-61 St Nicholas Street.
