Wrought iron railings and light fittings are original. Parapet decoration in cement render is similar to No. 40 Marne Street. The plan form of these flats cleverly maximises the view to the street and creates an interesting and substantial driveway entrance.Architect: Arthur W Plaisted.Owner: Mary McAlpin
