Plots of land sold in 1851; said to have been built in 1853.

Exterior

Victorian terrace with classical and Tudor ornament. Two-storey basement and attic, 2-window stucco fronts; set in reflected pairs with each divided by varied pilasters - Greek revival between Nos 2 and 3 and panelled between Nos 5 and 6. Entablature with classical wreath motifs, Nos 5 and 6 have egg and dart cornice. Slate roofs, rendered chimney stacks and modern flat roof dormers except to No 1 which has a skylight; small pane casement windows below; Nos 1 and 2 with marginal glazing with Tudor labels and 6-panel doors. The bays are carried on iron columns over the slate steps to the basements with small pane dash windows. Nos 5 and 6 have ornate cast iron balcony with trellised uprights; this is not shown in an 1859 view but is visible in a photograph of 1883.

Nos 1 and 2 retain their boundary railings to the front gardens which slope down to the rubble forecourt walls with dressed stone coping, gate piers and finialled railings.
