Statement of Significance

A pristine example of the four flat type with domestic revival elements, finely executed and well S2. maintained.

Physical Description

Four interwar apartments designed in a similar fashion to "Pine Court" and probably by the same hand with variations in detail and without major modifications. The walls are finished in a rough cast render with leadlight casement windows in sets of four placed symmetrically about paired corbel arch framed balconies. The roof is a simple green painted terra cotta tiled hip form. Sleep stairs with a solid balustrade give access to the upper flats on both the east and west sides.
