Description
This is a terrace of houses located on the south side of Palmyra Square, built in the third quarter of the 19th century. The first Lord Leverhulme lived at No. 9 from 1886 to 1888, but all the houses are now used as offices. The buildings are constructed of red brick and feature a top cornice, a stone band, and a base. They are two storeys high, with doorways set in doorcases that include Tuscan pilasters, a frieze, a cornice, and a plain fanlight. Some houses have three-sided bay windows, while others feature sash or modern windows. The upper windows are primarily sashes, most of which have cornices supported by brackets.
These listed buildings in Palmyra Square are part of a group that includes Nos. 9 to 21 (odd), the Museum and Art Gallery on Bold Street, No. 10 on Egypt Street, Nos. 3 to 13 (odd) on Springfield Street, and Nos. 13 and 15 on Suez Street.
