The inclusion of an otherwise unconnected arch and door among the houses in a typical Edwardian terrace seems rather odd. Despite that, its many paint layers are now becoming in danger of crumbling. A benchmark has been cut into the stonework; see http://www.bench-marks.org.uk/bm40834 for the Benchmark Database, and Image] for a closer view of it.
