The building jutting out in the foreground is part of the former Zion Baptist Church, now in commercial use, while behind are the five houses of Fountain Street, Nos. 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 from left to right. There never was another side to Fountain Street, nor were there any more houses, although the street itself formerly extended a little further to a junction with Walton Street. The houses is the distance are on Essex Street.
