Full Description

115 Fulford Road is an example of fine mid-1930s architectural design. The windows along the front elevation appears to be a mix of sash windows with a semi-circular top. A small post box is located to the right of the front door, indicating that the building was used as a post office. The characteristics of the house resemble 1930s buildings typically found in South East England but adds to the local street view along Fulford Road. Fulford Road is a historic road with a mix of Victorian up to 1930s styled houses and is part of the Fishergate Conservation Area.
