A terrace of five early C19th houses, stock brick, stuccoed ground floor. The cornice (and blocking course) is satisfying punctuation to the facade, e.g. compare with a similar terrace without Image Grade II listed. Note that the fourth house had been burnt by fire. The bridge beyond is defunct - whichever railway it carried has long since been dismantled. The new building in the background resembling offices is in fact flats (CQ London).
