This long terrace of houses (Nos.3-15) date from 1843, although they have been altered and rendered. The three prominent triangular pediments may have been incorporated to reflect the grander classical character of estate-built property and might well have been built with charitable patronage? In the distance is Green Street, a significant arterial road. Forester Street is part of the city's Green Street/St Peter's Street conservation area.
