This and the adjacent terrace (Nos 1-6, qv,-ref 9/256) built for naval officers and their families. 1848, designed by Charles Foord. Gault brick; Kent tile roofs. Like its neighbour, a tripartite arrangement: 2 end blocks of 3 storeys containing 2 houses stand forward of 6 houses of 2 storeys, the centre pair projecting slightly. All houses of 2- window bays with basement and areas. Identical features throughout (as to Nos 1-6): 4-pane horned sashes under cambered brick window arches, with stone sills on brackets; 4-panelled doors with rectangular overlights; sill and cornice bands; segmental-headed dormers; spear-headed railings to area. Large axial stacks. With the exception of the replaced door to No 11 all features survive intact and the terrace is a remarkably complete example of its date.
