Description
Nos. 1-12 Camden Road, formerly known as Bowen Terrace, is a terrace of twelve houses built in the 19th century. These two-storey homes have attics and are primarily constructed of stucco with slate roofs. The buildings feature moulded quoins and window surrounds. The end houses have gabled fronts adorned with decorative bargeboards, a single camber-headed attic window, a pair of camber-headed first-floor windows, and a splayed bay window. The entrances are located in the three-window returns.
The other houses in the terrace have two bays and include small gabled dormers. Above the ground floor splayed bay window, there are paired camber-headed sash windows, while the splayed bay itself has camber-headed sash windows and a cornice supported by scroll brackets. Another bay features a single first-floor window above a camber-headed doorway with an overlight.
The front garden wall of the terrace is made of stucco, with some sections rebuilt, and has rough stones on the coping. The original iron gates remain intact. One of the end houses has a gabled front facing the road and features a modern porch over the doorway on the left return.
