The pair of neoclassical early Victorian (1839) semi-detached houses in Monk Street are near the corner of Priory Street. The three blind central windows are reminders of the actions often taken by householders to reduce their liability under the Window Tax, introduced in 1696 in the reign of King William III, repealed in 1851.
