Occupying a corner plot where Lucknow Drive joins Magdala Road (in the Alexandra Court/Woodborough Road area) is another house designed by Thomas Chambers Hine the Victorian Architect. He drew up the plans for this property, a private residence, in 1886 when he was 73 years old, 5 years shy of his retirement. Architecturally, this one has the shaped gables and decorative strapwork (i.e. patterns and moulding - in stone - on the exterior of the house) of Hine's Jacobean revival style. At present the property appears to be a retirement home.
