A pair of late Georgian pedimented five-bay houses has miraculously survived. Grade II listed. When photographed they had no near neighbours; since this photo a bevy of glass towers has sprung up. By contrast, nothing much appears to have happened to this pair in the intervening seven years, but a proposal has been made to convert them to residential use.
