A pair of very early Victorian houses which have survived despite massive C20th encroachment of the neighbouring university hospitals. Built c1840. Grade II/II* listed. A blue plaque commemorates Emmeline Pankhurst who, with her daughters Christabel and Sylvia, lived at no. 62 from 1897 to 1907. The buildings now house the Pankhurst Centre, a "women-only space".
