History

Terraced house, C18 altered in late C19, converted to flats in late C20. The angle pilasters are similar to those on Nos 1 and 2, and apparently date from c1900 as not shown in an 1893 view of No 1. The house is said to have had a medieval pointed vault some 30 feet (9 metres) back from the street front, but although mentioned in 1981 listing it was not seen then, nor in 2004 when the interior was not accessible. The vault is said to have been tall and pointed.
