St George's House with Attached Steps, Railings and Yard Walls

St George's House, built around 1855, is located on Park Road in Sunderland. It features steps, railings, and yard walls, and was used for teaching accommodation by Sunderland Polytechnic at the time of listing. The building is constructed from garden wall bond brick with ashlar dressings and has a Welsh slate roof.

The south and left return elevations have a basement and two storeys, with four windows. The south elevation includes steps leading up to a three-panel door in the third bay, which has a plain overlight and is framed by a doorcase with engaged, fluted quasi-Corinthian octagonal columns and a dentil cornice. The basement displays banded rustication and sash windows with glazing bars. Other sash windows, tripartite on the ground floor of the left return, feature stone sills and architraves, each adorned with a frieze and cornice. The hipped roof has a moderate pitch and includes a 20th-century dormer. The right return has a set-back 20th-century addition.

The high walls, capped with ashlar, break forward from the right to enclose the yard and are complemented by square brick piers of the same height at the corners, forming a central entrance to Park Road and a side vehicle entrance on the right return of the yard. This building was originally part of St George's Place, a square that sustained damage during World War II.
