This is one of the two grand terraces on the north-west side of The Crescent, part of the planned layout by Samuel & Richard Hey Sharp of York. In the background is Belvoir Terrace built between 1833-40 which is separated from the longer terrace in the foreground by a short road. The main terrace took longer to build ie 1833-57. The end three former houses are now a hotel and have a blue plaque.
