Pale brick and uneven green weatherboarding on timber frames, with yellow and red weatherboarded eaves, under shallow double-pitched metal roofs with plywood box beam purlins and projecting eaves to garden elevations. Two storeys, all the Nos. 1 slightly higher and without the weatherboarding, but with prominent down pipes extending from the projecting eaves. All windows of timber with timber subframes and aluminium opening lights (mainly sliding), save for Nos. 2 Winship Garden which have been renewed in uPVC. Timber doors with glazed panel, some renewed in hardwood. Interiors not inspected but understood not to be of special interest. Brown fences link the three terraces to form a small semi-private courtyard. Granite kerbs from development formerly on the site to front and rear, notably to frontages of Winship and Fairless Garden abutting Spires Lane. Fixed seating to front and rear a particularly plentiful feature in this part of the estate.
