The 3-storey rear service range has a hipped end above a

Royal Terrace was originally of 18 houses, built in 2 phases,
this one being of the early phase; it has a straight joint in
the face brickwork with No.74 (qv) adjoining, showing that
work was not continuous even in the main phases of
construction. Apart from the loss of glazing bars to the
street front, this remains one of the better units in the
terrace, including the rear detailing.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
