Fire Escape, Lansdowne Road
Originally built as town houses many of the Victorian terraces have been subdivided into flats. A tragedy in nearby Hove Villas in the mid 1990s when a number of people lost their lives when a fire spread through a top floor flat holding a party caused the council to get tough and order fire escapes from every multi-occupied building in the city, listed or not. This house is on the junction of Lansdowne Road and Lansdowne Street.
