Terrace of 5 houses now in use as offices, all that remains of
a longer row. 1835. Yellow brick with stone dressings and
Welsh slate roofs. 2-storeyed raised on a basement, each unit
of 2 bays: a narrow bay with doorway in recessed porch and a
wider gabled bay with full-height canted bay windows. Each
unit is a mirror image of its neighbour, with paired entrances
in a single arched recess. Stuccoed 2-centred arch to porches,
Gothic traceried panels to inner doors, and mullioned and
transomed windows over (some renewed), and stone mullioned and
transomed lights to bay windows. Coped gables and parapet
eaves. Axial stacks (renewed). Entrances approached up steps
with cast-iron railings which return along the frontages. The
houses were part of a controlled devlopment by the church
aimed at attracting the wealthy to live in Stoke.
