End-of-terrace three-bay two-storey over basement red brick house, built c. 1895, with an oriel window and a front railed basement area. Pitched natural slate roof with black ridge tiles, a shared red brick chimneystack to the south and a further red brick chimneystack rising from the north gable, clay pots to both. Cement coping to gable with cast-iron rainwater goods. Red brick walls to front, laid in English garden wall bond and returning to the rendered gable elevation. Gauged brick camber-arched window openings with limestone sills and replacement uPVC windows, reconfigured single window opening to basement with aluminium window. Three-sided canted timber oriel window to ground floor with a hipped zinc roof and uPVC windows, continuous sill and moulded corbelled out base. Gauged brick camber-arched door opening with a painted label moulding and carved stone stops. Replacement tongue and groove timber door with brass furniture and rectangular overlight. Door opens onto concrete platform with cast-iron bootscraper and two concrete steps. Steps flanked by simple wrought-iron railings on painted plinth course enclosing basement area.
This house represents the least intact on the terrace having lost its windows and door, however, the façade composition remains intact and, as a whole, it forms an integral part of the overall impression of this terrace overlooking the People’s Park and the Carnegie Gallery.
