17a Goring Road

Nos 17a and 17 Goring Road are two houses built around 1830-1840. They are constructed in stucco with a painted stone base and feature a painted timber cornice with brackets at the eaves. The roofs are covered with concrete tiles and have rebuilt brick chimney stacks.

No 17 has a formal three-window arrangement, while No 17a to the left has a matching one-window arrangement and a door positioned to the left. Both houses have sixteen-pane hornless sash windows with painted stone sills. The entrance to No 17 features a five-panel central door with a traceried overlight and panelled reveals. It is framed by a large painted timber Doric doorcase, which includes fluted Roman Doric columns and a cornice entablature adorned with triglyphs, paterae, and mutules. There is one dormer window on the left side.

No 17a has a doorway to the left with a similar five-panel door, but it lacks an overlight, resulting in a smaller doorcase with fluted Roman Doric pilasters and a similar frieze, though the cornice is damaged.

Nos 15, 17, and 17a appear to be of similar construction dates, with No 13 being a later matching extension and No 19 possibly being slightly older.
