Terraced house. c.1745. Developed by Steemson. A porch and

and the whole of the lower part of the street front rebuilt
c.1988 under the supervision of Chambers, Goodwin and
Partners. Brown brick laid in Flemish bond with dressings of
gauged red brick. Three storeys over basement with dormers in
attic; three-window range. Flat-arched entrance flanked by
fluted pilasters supporting entablature whose dentil cornice
breaks forward over the pilasters; overlight. All windows
flat-arched with heads of gauged red brick. Parapet; dormers
in mansard roof; side stacks.
INTERIOR: : staircase hall with panelled dado and modillion
cornice. Fine staircase with curtail step, wreathed, ramped
and moulded handrail, turned newels and column-on-vase
balusters, the vase decorated with fluting, open string with
scroll and leaf forms; from the first to the third floors the
balusters are of simpler design. The front and back rooms on
the ground floor have a plaster modillion cornice, a replica
of the original; bolection-moulded fireplace in the front
room; the first-floor front room has a white marble fireplace
with simplified pilasters and an early C19 cast-iron grate.
