History

End-terrace house, now flats, c 1837, restored 1989 by Llewelyn Lewis Sennik architects, with Nos 17 and 18. Built between 1824-1837. By 1841 occupied by a Ladies' Seminary. In 1884 Miss Frances Humphreys boarding and day school was at No 18, which may have been this house as numbering changed in late C19. This house was probably built by the sculptor and builder David Mainwaring who had premises at No 18 and a stone sill high on the W side is said to read 'This pine end is the property of Daniel Mainwaring'.
Old photograph pre-restoration shows an opening to left of left ground floor window on Spilman Street and brickwork exposed where stucco has fallen.
