GV II

Planned terrace of houses. Mid C19. Stucco with stucco detail; dry slate or asbestos slate roofs behind parapet with moulded cornice; each house with segmental-headed roof dormer; stuccoed end stacks. Double-depth plan, each house with 1 room at the front and entrance porch fronting entrance hall on its right. EXTERIOR: 2 storeys plus attics; each house a 3-window range with blind central window. Most window openings have their original hornless sashes, most with glazing bars. Stucco detail includes: channelled rustication to ground floor except where each house has a single window in a recessed segmental-arched panel; moulded mid-floor cornice breaking forward over porch entablature and round-arched 1st-floor windows with moulded hoods on impost cornices. Porches have pilaster cornices and stepped entablature and C20 outer doors fronting possible original panelled inner doors. INTERIOR: not inspected but likely to be of interest. In a city which lost so many windows during the Blitz, this terrace is remarkable in having so many original sashes. One of a good group of terraces, shown on the 1867 map. (The Buildings of England: Pevsner N: Devon: London: 1989-: 669).
