Terrace of 5 houses. 1854 for the Earl of Yarborough, with later C19 and C20 alterations to No.12, and minor alterations to remainder. Red brick in Flemish bond; Welsh slate roof. EXTERIOR: 3 storeys, 3-window range to each house; houses arranged in handed pairs. Each house has ashlar plinth, 3 stone steps to a recessed half-glazed panelled door with engraved panes and plain fanlight beneath a round arch with impost blocks. 6/6 ground-floor sashes with stone sills beneath cambered rubbed-brick arches. First-floor balcony carried on chamfered timber piers with shaped arched braces with pierced trefoils. Balcony has wooden fascia with corniced wooden gutter, balustrade with wooden principals and handrail, and ornate cast-iron scrollwork panels bearing anthemion motif, alternating with plain bars. First floor has French windows with glazing bars beneath 2-pane overlights. Second floor has 3/6 sashes with sills. Moulded eaves board with carved modillion brackets carrying wooden gutter. Entrance to No.4 has painted overlight with Highland landscape scene. No.6 has plain glass to door. No.8 has plate glass to lower half of sashes and horizontal sliding Venetian blinds to the first floor. No.10 has ribbed glass to front door, shaped blind boxes to first-floor windows and plain wooden balustrade to balcony. No.12 has later alterations: a late C19 projecting ground-floor extension with 2/2 sashes to the front and an entrance on its left return with an inserted C20 glazed door and fanlight in an original quoined ashlar surround mutilated by the adjoining later C20 building (Nos.12A and 12B, which is not included). First floor of No.12 has plain balcony, original French window and 2 windows with C20 glazing, and a C20 concrete-tiled canopy extending from Nos.12A-12B. 3 large corniced roof stacks. Right return of terrace bears scars of end house, demolished in 1970s. Rear has a variety of fenestration, including wooden ground-floor bay windows, sashes with glazing bars. Series of low 2-storey rear service wings and, to No.4, a tall later C19 single-storey music room (now garage) with round-headed stained glass windows. Original board doors and inserted C20 garage doors to rear yards enclosed by coped walls ramped up

to higher sections adjoining the outbuildings. INTERIOR: cantilevered staircases with slender column-on-bulb balusters, wreathed and swept grip handrail and moulded tread-ends; 4-panelled doors and windows in architraves, moulded plaster cornices. Later C19 music room to rear of No.4, now garage, has ornate interior with panelled dado and wall arcade of fluted Corinthian pilasters, with half-columns flanking the former stage adjoining the house (now utility room); elaborate modillioned cornice, mutilated in places by late C20 roof; round-headed windows with stained glass floral designs in fluted architraves. Door to yard has internal hardwood surround with twin columns; inserted C20 garage door to rear. HISTORY: the terrace was a speculative development by Charles Anderson Pelham, the second Earl of Yarborough, a major local landowner and director of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway Company, which was responsible for early development of Grimsby Docks. Forms a group with the slightly earlier St James's Terrace nearby on Bargate (qv).
