GV II
A terrace of 3 houses, formerly part of the barracks of the West Suffolk Militia Regiment. 1857/8. By RM Phipson in partnership with G Morgan. In dark red brick with blue headers and lighter red brick dressings. Hipped slate roof with a wide eaves soffit. Elizabethan style, and in similar, but plainer, style to Nos 28 to 33 King's Road (qv). EXTERIOR: 2 storeys; 15 window range, arranged 3:2:3:2:2:3, all single-light casements with horizontal glazing-bars in slightly pointed brick surrounds with stone sills. High internal sawtooth chimney-stacks each have a row of tall terracotta pots. Rear has 3 paired ground and first-floor windows to each house. INTERIOR: not inspected. Low red brick boundary walls along the frontage have stone copings and higher dividing pillars with conical stone caps. HISTORY: the 1853 Militia Act required each county to provide NCO accommodation and a secure store for arms. These houses may be the former. An unusual design, which forms part of a group with the adjoining Nos 28-33 (qv).
