Pair of semi-detached houses. Early to mid C19. Rendered,
slate hipped roof.
Although originally a symmetrical villa, the halves now differ
in detail on the street front.
2 storeys, each 2 windows; No.38 has 4-pane sashes to stone
sills, and to the right a 6-panel fielded door with radial
fanlight, on 1 step.
Right return has a 12-pane sash at first floor, and a deep
18-pane stair sash. No.40 has a tent verandah on cast-iron
uprights and balustrade over 2 French doors with transom
lights. Ground floor has a large canted bay with glazing bars
to top light of sashes only; to the left, in a porch with
panelled cheeks, 4-pane transom light, and reeded pilasters a
6-panel fielded door under plain fanlight. A deep stair light
on the left return. Box eaves, large central rendered stack.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
Probably built at the same time as St Augustine's Church (qv),
with Nos 34 & 36, and 42 & 44 (qqv) as a group.
