A semi-detached house built in the 1840s, which for the first twenty years looked out over open fields.  Early residents included printers and stationers, manufacturer's agents and a corn factor.

By 1912 part of the rear garden and that of its neighbour had been marked out for development, and from that time the property was shared between two households.  It was later acquired by the Council and by 2000 was vacant and 'plagued by squatters'.  It was returned to private ownership
