Historical information
UAHS state that this terrace was erected c1840 but it does not appear on the 1862 OS map. Architectural detailing would suggest it was erected in the late 19thC. The HMBB first survey slide shows this building to have modern windows. The HMBB first survey card states that these properties originally had slated roofs, brick walls with contrasting brick dressings to windows. Sash windows with horns and panelled doors with plain transoms.
