Nos 10-20 are a terrace of six houses. 1838-40, by John Tombs, builder, perhaps to designs by Edward Cresy the elder, Rutland House estate surveyor. Stock brick with stucco dressings. Three bays each. Four storeys, basements and full attics; mansards added at Nos 16-20. Porches with distinctive palm-headed column capitals. Ground-floor channelled stucco. Panelled doors with margin lights, some altered. First-floor cast-iron balconies, moulded brackets, French windows with alternating segmental and triangular architrave pediments; No. 14 has a bow window of 1920s. Upper-storey architraves, stringcourses and cornices. Twelve-pane sashes, some plate-glass replacement. Attic has six-light sashes, blind central bays on alternate houses (Nos 12, 16 and 20). Three-bay north return to No. 10, blind outer bays. Spearhead cast-iron area railings.
No. 22 was separately built in 1841. Three bays, one storey lower. Altered, with fully stuccoed first and second storeys. Included for group value.

This harmoniously designed terrace is the most substantial survival from the original layout of Rutland Gate's north garden square.
