Description

2 and 4 Queens Place are two townhouses built around 1780. They are constructed of Flemish bond brown brick and have a grey slate roof. The buildings rise three storeys and feature a painted stone plinth. There are stone steps leading to recessed doors with six fielded panels, set in simple pedimented cases. The windows include flush sashes with painted stone sills and wedge lintels that have triple keystones. Between the doors, there are two tripartite windows with four, twelve, and four panes.

At No. 2, there are two twelve-pane sashes on the first floor and a tripartite window with two, six, and two panes on the second floor. At No. 4, there is a four, twelve, and four-pane sash on the first floor and a two, six, and two-pane sash on the second floor. A central rainwater pipe with a cast lead head is present, along with a painted cornice, likely made of stone, and a central ridge chimney. The rear of the buildings is irregular, featuring a large back wing at No. 2 and a smaller one at No. 4, with flush sashes of twelve, eight, six, and four panes under cambered brick heads. The interiors have not been inspected.
