2. Circa 1840 Jacobean style terrace. Three storeys with attic and basement, red brick and rubble basement, rendered rusticated quoins, vermiculated on ground floor of Nos 40 and 44. Three slightly projecting bays with shaped gables and spike finials. Gable end steep pitch tiled roof. Two dormers with brick tympanuon, moulded arch with Keystone over. Nos 40 and 44 have extra single window bay at East and West end respectively. Nos 41, 42 and 43 are of one window only. The attic windows in gables and dormers are sash with glazing bars intact, plain rendered surrounds to dormers and rendered shouldered surrounds in gables. All windows recessed, casements in the Eastern and Western bays on second floor, otherwise sash, with a tripartite division giving a mullion effect. First floor windows larger version of those on second floor, some with casements, rusticated surrounds. Ground floor, similar but narrower, vermiculated surrounds on Nos 40 and 44. The doorways of Nos 41, 42, 43 are placed against projecting bays so that their plain rendered surrounds are barrowed on that side. Doors recessed panelled below with three lights with mullions. The doors of Nos 40 and 44 are modern but have same surround as others, though they are centred in the end bays with a right angle instead of a straight flight of steps. Rendered piers flank steps with gabled caps.
