Statement of Interest

Continuous terrace with Eden Cottage, Edenside and Bowhill (see separate listings). The rainhoppers to Eden House are cast-iron and of a standard 19th century type, however it is interesting that the N elevation hopper is placed to single bay group at the eaves height of the adjacent Eden Cottage; this may indicate that this single bay group was also originally a single storey building that has been raised to 2-storey breaking eaves.
