139. Charlotte Street.
Charlotte Street shows less alteration than the other cross-streets, yet even here the lower parts of Numbers 5 and 6 North Charlotte Street and of Number 3 South Charlotte Street have been converted into shops. The buildings that survive intact, Numbers I, 2, 3 and 4 North Charlotte Street and Numbers 5-9, 10, I I, and 15 South Charlotte Street, either selfcontained or main-door dwellings with flats above, are uniform terrace-houses. The street floor is invariably channel-jointed and the superstructure is of droved ashlar. The first-floor windows of Number 15 have moulded architraves and cornices.
