GV II

Terrace of 9 suburban houses. Early C19. Stucco and some
render on rubble; original grouted scantle slate roof to
No.5 and to rear wing, dry slate to Nos 3, 4, 8 & 9, otherwise
asbestos slate; hipped ends; brick axial stacks. Double-depth
plan plus service wings at right angles to rear of entrance
bays.
Semi-circular arches, plinths, moulded hoods over ground-floor
windows, moulded architraves to 1st-floor windows and moulded
parapet cornice. 2 storeys; each house is a 3-window range.
Original hornless sashes with distinctive pattern of
horizontal panes. Entrance bays are recessed with pairs of
moulded round-arched doorways under 1st-floor balconies with
original cast-iron railings; petalled fanlights over original
6-panel doors. Rear has many original sashes, also to wings.
INTERIOR: where inspected interiors have original moulded
ceiling cornices; open-well staircases, panelled doors and
window shutters. In each house the ground-floor partition
between the entrance hall and the linked reception rooms is
articulated to provide a recessed pair of doorways to the
centre and a sideboard recess in each room. There are
elliptical arches to these and the wide linking doorway.
SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: low road frontage walls. Rear gardens are
divided by high rubble walls which, where inspected (except to
left of No.1), have scantle slate copings with red clay ridge
tiles. Probably the best surviving group of such walls in
Falmouth.
