Pair of villas in planned group. Early C19 by John Foulston. Stucco with stucco detail; dry slate hipped roof with modillion cornice and pediment over the central 2 bays; rendered end stacks. Double-depth plan plus deep service wings at rear left and right and entrance porches set back to returns. 2 storeys; symmetrical 4-bay garden front with plinth and end pilasters. Late C19 sashes to No.9 (right) and C20 windows to No.8, those to 1st floor under moulded hoods on consoles, the ground-floor windows with corner pilasters, moulded entablature, and turned balustrades above, the windows to central bays are tripartite. Porches with moulded entablature and paired columns to return elevations; No.8 with glazed doors, No.9 with original panelled doors. INTERIOR: not inspected but likely to be of interest. Part of a good group of villas by Foulston, set within their original landscape and thus remarkable in a national context. (The Buildings of England: Pevsner N: Devon: London: 1989-: 674).
