Place & story

Porch and sash windows

Number 4 Saint Loman’s Terrace on Patrick Street was built around 1900 as one of three houses. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage records a projecting entrance porch, timber sash windows and a slate roof with a central brick chimney. Its survey notes that the neighbouring houses had been substantially altered, giving this end house particular value as evidence of the terrace’s earlier appearance. [2]
