Description
Three quite grand red brick terraced houses. Detailing similar to Station Road. Deep front gardens, two-storey bay windows and decorative porches. Original joinery survives as well as unpainted stone detailing which is rare in the CA. Shield Hurst's side elevation was built ready for the next house which was never built. The group is surrounded by a pocket of undeveloped land with naturalised scrub and copious trees.
