Round-arch door opening with red brick pilasters having cast stucco capitals joined by enriched cast archivolt with foliate keystone. Porch opening closed by glazed uPVC door. Original tiled porch floor, flat-panelled door leaf and overlight. Concrete steps to porch door. Elevated front site enclosed from road by rendered plinth wall supporting foliate cast-iron panelling.

Appraisal
This house forms one of four houses of similar design, built to uniform principles, which relies on the repetition of the three-sided bay window, doorcase and front site boundary wall treatment. uPVC window replacements mar the unity of the terrace.
