The great industrialist John Edward Wainhouse had these superb Victorian terraces built in 1876. He undertook the project to enhance a block of terraced back-to-back houses. These houses, with attached under dwellings were typical of the popular Victorian terraces built all over Halifax at the time. Wainhouse complimented them with a 200ft balcony complete with ornamental colonnade.
The terrace houses were demolished in 1978, although the colonnade and architectural features were retained.
Here's a link to what they used to look like before they became derelict and then ultimately demolished.

Terraces in the Kathmandu valley, with rice. The yellow is mustard and the white is nursery rice, I think.
Some rather striking terraced houses in Buxton, with 'crazy paving' style end wall and half timbered front.
Here is what's left of Wainhouse Terrace complete with Wainhouse Tower in the background. Mr Wainhouse decided to 'upgrade' a row of terraces in 1876 with the addition of a 200 foot balcony overlooking the ornamental colonnade we see here. A little bit of Mediterranean glamour for downtown Halifax, but the Yorkies won in the end as the glamour apparent in the attached links has long gone, as did the terraces back in 1978. The initials JEW (John Edward Wainhouse) and the date 1876 are still visible in the front wall of what remains.

Some very interesting buildings can be found along Wellington Street with a variety of off the street terraced housing as well as larger a Victorian terrace which are set back from the road.
Cannon Street, Reading. Note the pattered brickwork which is so typical of Reading buildings from the Victorian era.
As I was exiting the numerous alleyways of Gamcheon Cultural Village and headed down the hills more towards the harbourside, the terrain began to change. From rows upon rows of residential housing, I was now surrounded by some terraced hillsides. A man was tending to something in his field as I gazed upwards and took in this scene.

The Terrace Tavern, Gravesend, 22 October 2019. It seems to have once sold 'Shrimp Brand Beers'. Delicious, I'm sure. The beer was brewed by Russell's Gravesend Brewery, which was acquired from Plane & Heathorn in 1858, taken over by Truman, Hanbury & Buxton in 1933, closed in 1935.
A rather sad sight can be found here, the building had some rather subtle pieces of plaster detailing which has unfortunately deteriorated over the years of neglect this building has had to endure. It is rather sad to see a building like this in such a bad state as it is one of the last reminders that this area is older than it looks. Where there are sprawling inner city estates were once terraces with shops and pubs on every corner. Now, there is landscaped land and derelict buildings like this.
Edit Feb 2012 This building has since been demolished, not too sure as to the exact date.
