Fifth house of a terrace of eight, built c. 1840 in Tudor style, presumably for one of the gentry estates, but there are buildings marked on the site on a map of 1829. The houses are similar to those in Bull Terrace nearby. No 5 is a mirrored pair with No 6.
Terrace house, rubble stone with slate deep-eaved roof and red brick right end chimneys. Roof has scallopped eaves board, chimneys have renewed pair of red brick diagonally set shafts, in block of four with chimneys of No 4. Two-storey, three-window range with projecting gable in right bay. Gable has scallopped bargeboards, tooled sandstone plinth and windows with deep chamfered jambs, stone sills and moulded sandstone hoodmoulds over timber lintels. Gable has single light, ground floor has mullion-and-transom three-light. Main range to left has two small windows under eaves with chamfered jambs and stone sills, the left one narrower, over a similar three-light with hoodmould and a segmental-pointed chamfered doorway with studded board door and iron strap hinges.
Rear has C20 windows each floor, upper ones gabled.
Interior not inspected.
Included for its special architectural interest as one of a distinctive terrace of Tudor style estate cottages.
