A handsome late-Georgian terrace, 1830s, comprising three-bay houses of three storeys plus basement, and aggrandised by Ionic porches and ornate cast-iron balconies (Image]). The terrace is punctuated by two broad pediments. Grade II listed. Despite the municipal authorities' inglorious treatment of its Georgian heritage since the war, much remains and happily is being restored and re-used. Liverpool must still be able to boast one of the country's richest stock of Georgian houses, perhaps putting it in the ranks of Bristol, Bath and Edinburgh (and some distance behind London only).
