This iconic “Paddington style” terrace is a row of five double storey houses which features a prominent third storey mid terrace and castellated motif.  The name “Castle Terrace” is emblazoned between a medieval castle motif, including twin turrets and battlements and three keystoned windows.  The mid terrace also features a cast iron column which splits the iron lacework in two.
