The bricks on the west gable end inform that this is Earlham Road Terrace > http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5807548 and give the date of its construction as 1853. The bricks were made by Gunton's brickworks in Costessey. From the 1830s to 1915, George Gunton and from 1868 onwards his sons William and George, made a range of ornamental bricks which they called Cosseyware, at their brickyard in Costessey (pronounced Cossey). Among a number of brickyards in the area, the Guntons' perhaps had the greatest effect on Norwich housebuilding in that two of Norwich's foremost architects, Edward Boardma and George Skipper, both used Cosseyware in their buildings.
