Description:
A terrace of three two storey houses. All of tuck-pointed brown brick with cast iron balconies. Two of the terraces are now painted. No. 136 has had its front fence removed.

They were referred to briefly as Richardson's terrace but since then appear not to have been known as a single entity, but rather by individual names. No.
