Terrace of houses. Circa 1860. English garden wall bond brick with ashlar basement

surrounds with bracketed canopies; Aproned sashes, plate glass to Nos. 1-7, mostly
margined to Nos. 8-10, in architraves on ground floor and under wedge stone lintels

ashlar-corniced. Cast iron balconies to Nos. 2-7. Nosed steps to doors, with cast
iron balustrades and handrails to Nos. 1-7 and to No. l0. LISTED GRADE 2
SITEASS
These later, larger houses were built to impress. They do not have the pure late-Georgian design of the earlier terraces. More elaborate stone detailing (window surrounds, panelling, rusticated basements, quoins) and the elevated and generous layout make them grander. Views out are long and some of the best in the area. Nos. 9 and 10 are 5-bay double-fronted houses with large timber dormers, and are among the largest and most attractive in Summerhill Square. The other houses are 3-bay with Nos. 2 to 7 all having similar details. No. 1's detailing is similar to No. 33 Summerhill Street. Front gardens are mature with creepers, weeping trees and variegated shrubs. A large pollarded Black Poplar makes a contribution but other mature trees have been lost here. The rears are very tall and prominent on a wide back lane. The high brick yard walls have original openings and later roller-shutters. Some stairwell windows have painted and leaded glass. There are several original off-shots {2}.
