History

Later C19 house, a pair with No 7, described as 'recently erected'' in 1885, and then known as Clyde House. The Parade was laid out in 1782 and lined with trees in 1800. There are references to new houses in the 1830s and 1840s, the 1834 map shows a detached building roughly on the site of Nos 6-7 and a view of 1874 shows villas.
