The ground floor windows are round-headed and have architraves with vermiculated

door and heads of Amphitrite over windows. The central window space is taken
up by a 6-panel door with ornamental band, and radiating fanlight. Guilloche
band over ground floor. Plain sash windows 1st floor. Swagged frieze, cornice
parapet surmounted by 6 Adam-style urns. Vermiculated angle rusticaticns. The
whole of the enrichment is in Coade stone (RCHM Dorset, VolI); graded II* for
this reason and for the fact that it was built for Eleanor Coade.

& l5 and Belmont form a group.
