Four terrace houses. c1830.
MATERIALS: Limestone ashlar, slate roofs.
PLAN: Double depth range, stepped down the hill, and set to steep slope, generating extra storey to rear of terrace.
EXTERIOR: Three storeys and lower ground floor, each two windows, all plain sashes in splayed surrounds. No.205 retains cast iron balconettes to first and second floors. Each house has to right bold square flat roofed porch, brought forward to pavement edge, and linked with low ashlar walls across lower ground floor areas, covering pair of vertically panelled doors in Doric pilasters, with entablature and blocking, blocking to No.203 in form of shallow pyramid. Lower ground floors have single large sash. Plain bands above porches, frieze and cornice above first floor, and cornice, blocking course and parapet above second floor, these all stepped and swept, and returned to ends, including parapet. Twin ashlar stacks to coped party divisions to left of each house, and at right hand end roof finishes to two hips. Right return has paired sash at second floor, and left return paired sashes at first and second floors. Rear in rubble, except top floor, in dressed stone, each house has single large sash at each floor, those to No.203 being twelve-paned. Cavetto cornices above first floor and to parapet.
INTERIORS: Not inspected.
The terrace stands in isolation, perhaps part of a larger but abortive development. It betrays the influence of John Pinch's approach to designing rows of houses on sloping sites, with his characteristic upswept string courses which were executed here in a stepped rather than upswept manner.
