Stuccoed (three houses cement - fronted) with rusticaton on ground floor. The terrace is designed as a unit. Central house (No7) juts out and has massive Corinthian columns supporting a balustraded balcony on third floor. The end houses (Nos1 and 13) also project slightly and have Corinthian columns, but these support the cornice instead of the balcony. Nos 5 and 9 are similar except that the 2 outer columns of 4 are replaced by pilasters. Nos 6 and 8 are similar to Nos 5 and 9, but not projecting. All the other houses have 1st floor balconies (Nos 4 and 9 with hoods). Most houses have porches with Doric columns. Rectangular fanlights. Glazing bars missing except in basement. Some of the houses have been defaced by the addition of balconies on 2nd floor or by cutting away the cornice. Harrison Ainsworth lived at No 5 from 1853-1867, as a tablet on the house records.
