Description
Pink rendered three storey house now used by Barker and Stonehouse as offices. All that remains of the Georgian period in this street. Presumably this is the building shown as the large detached Strawberry House on the OS map of 1861-2 within large gardens with lawns and a glass house. Next door is the confident two-storey curved glazed retail pavilion for Barker and Stonehouse, a good example of contemporary development in the Leazes Conservation Area.
