40 Garden Suburbs

40 Garden Suburbs is a group of six terraced cottages built in pairs, each two stories high. The cottages feature pebble-dashed fronts, tiled roofs, and brick chimney stacks. Each pair has asymmetrical gables with cambered-headed windows. Most of the original leaded casement glazing is still in place, although some windows have been replaced in a similar style. The gables include 4-light windows on the first floor and 3-light windows on the ground floor next to the entrances, except for the end cottages, Nos 38 and 48, which have 5-light windows on the ground floor. The cottages have gabled hoods over boarded doors, which feature a wave-shaped head with an inset small-pane light. Between each pair of gables, there are flat-roofed, tile-hung dormers with 3-light windows, positioned above splayed bay windows that flank a through-passage. The roofs of these bay windows extend to create a hood over the round-arched entrance of the passage.
