Description


The following building shall be added:

ASHFIELD STREET
TQ 3481
(south side)
788-/15/10037 nos. 84-98 (even)

GV II

Terrace row. c.1826-7. Flemish bond and brick with slate roof and brick stacks, stucco to end
houses. Double-depth plans. 2 storeys to central houses, flanked by a 3-storey house at either
end, with No.84 of 2 storeys beyond. Terrace row of 10-window range with semi-circular
arches over blocked doorways and windows, and flat gauged-brick arches over first floor
windows with some 12-paned sashes all set in semi-circular arched reveals. Flanking houses each
of two bays have stucco fronts each with keyed arches over windows and doors within
rusticated ground floors, and flat arches over framed 12-paned sashes to upper floors; moulded
cornices beneath parapets. Canted bays to rear with sash windows under gauged brick heads.
Interiors retain stick baluster dog-leg stairs, some contemporary fireplaces and panelling.

This terrace forms an impressive composition, unusual in lower-class housing of the early
nineteenth century, linking the formal layouts of Sidney and Ford Squares.
