Terrace of three houses. 1951-2. By Raynond Erith for the Messrs Alexander.
Brick, rendered garden front. Slate roof with four symmetrically placed brick
stacks and wooden eaves soffit. Three storeys. Rectangular plan with large
projecting bins on garden front. North (road) front a symmetrical five bay
composition with blind windows on all storeys either side of centre and
windows with margin-glazed sashes in outer bays. None on first floor set in
single storey recesses. Central panelled door under low first floor window
and low round-arched second floor window, both relatively small. Doors with
arches also to extreme ends of facade and further door to right of right-hand
ground floor blind window. All openings and recesses on this front have
gauged heads, as have those on returns. South elevation is of seven bays with
large margin-light casements, outer pairs of bays in semi-circular bay
projecting slightly from line of facade. Windows flanking centre of
tripartite proportions, thought not glazed in a tripartite fashion. Centre
bay with small arched window on second floor, small square window on first
floor and margin half-glazed door with transom light on ground floor. Two
storey verandah masking central three beys, with cast-iron supports below and
wooden supports above to pitched lead roof.

Interior not inspected but undoubtedly of interest. One of Erith's most
successful compositions.

L Archer, Raynord Erith, 1985, pp 128-30.
