Single windows above; full height canted windows with dividing cornices to advanced bays to outer left (painted) and outer right.

E ELVATION: symmetrical fenestration; wooden sunporch (1969) with forestair to principal floor to outer right; 2-leaf glazed door at basement to outer left.

Plate glass sash and case windows to W; mixture of 3-pane and 12-pane sash and case with plate glass pivot window to E. Grey slate piended roof; lead flashing; moulded eaves guttering; 4 19th century segmental-arched dormers (2 to E, 2 to W); 6 corniced wallhead stacks (4 shouldered, 1 rendered).

Statement of Interest

The shafted mullions and margins with foliate capitals are quite badly weathered at No 45. This double villa is very similar in design to Nos 41 and 43, and 49 and 51 Lauder Road, also by Paterson.
