A symmetrical (mirror image) pair of Italianate mid-C19th white brick houses. Each has a tower, that feature so beloved of Victorians, pierced by a pair of unusually tall and thin round-headed windows. As may be apparent, the house on the right is now a hotel. Church Road has a number of good suburban villas dating from around this time, many of which have been converted to multiple occupancy or institutional use, and most of its buildings are within a Conservation Area.
