Description
Lansdowne Terrace is a town house that forms the end of a terrace, built around 1840 and altered since. It features painted scored stucco with painted sandstone dressings and has a slate roof that is hipped to the left. The building has a double-depth, double-fronted plan and is situated on a corner site, with two storeys over a cellar and three windows. The left side has painted quoining, and there is a central doorway with a pilastered architrave, a moulded cornice, and a blocking course that includes a shield in the center. The door is panelled, and there are unhorned 12-pane sashed windows with raised sills and rectangular lintels. The chimneys are located on the left slope and on the ridge to the right. The left return, which faces Scarisbrick Street, has one 12-pane sash window at the ground floor and two altered windows above. The interior has not been inspected.
