Nikolaus Pevsner illustrated No 18 - just to the left of centre here, with white-framed Venetian windows - in The Buildings of England and had a fair bit to say. In the revised version of "Nottinghamshire" Elizabeth Williamson elaborated: "No 10 (1876) is a wild version of the Butterfield type of Gothicism by one of the less squeamish designers (Alfred Smith of Nottingham)...On the S side the most imposing building is Willoughby House (Nos 20-22), built c. 1738...set back behind a small courtyard with fine wrought-iron railings and gate. Red brick. Main doorcase with broken segmental pediment and moulded keystone on Roman Ionic columns...Ionic columns appear in the next-door house, No 18, also early C18, with Venetian windows on each of the three floors. In the lowest the centre light breaks through a pediment."
