He also designed St Thomas Terrace which was completed in 1868 and given Grade II listing in 1988.The terrace is within it's own walled gardens with a drive entrance from North Road. This leads into the individually owned parking areas and a gravelled path leads to the pathway which runs in front of all the houses. No. 3 is a delightful mid-terrace Victorian house which is presented to an exceptionally high standard. The house retains its period character and style with beautiful Victorian Gothic windows, stained and painted floorboards and stairs and original cast iron fireplaces. These are complemented by gas central heating and a contemporary well fitted kitchen and a modern shower room.
