Description
Terraced two-bay three-storey house, built in 1865 as part of a group of five similar properties. The façade is finished in painted render to the ground floor level, with the upper floors in brick. To the ground floor there is a canted bay window. The slated pitched roof has an overhang supported on decorative brackets, and a shared brick chimneystack. The entrance consists of a panelled timber door with pilaster jambs and rectangular fanlight with shaped upper corners. The windows are flat-headed and have replacement uPVC frames. The bay window shares a single-pitched lead covered roof with the bay window of the neighbouring property. This roof, which is partly supported on timber brackets, has a decorative ‘eaves’ detailing. Cast-iron rainwater goods. The house fronts on to a roadside but is separated from it by a small garden enclosed by a brick wall with arched recesses, rendered coping, and a shared wrought-iron gate with rendered piers.
Appraisal
Whilst not the most outstanding of Bray’s mid Victorian terraced properties, this house is still largely original, and, along with its mainly similar and generally well preserved neighbours, remains a valuable part of the streetscape.
