Description
Nos. 15 and 16 Regent Street are a pair of small town houses built around 1860. They are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, featuring sandstone dressings and a slate roof. Each house has a shallow double-depth plan and is double-fronted, standing two storeys high with three windows on each side, creating a symmetrical appearance. The design includes a plain frieze and a moulded gutter cornice, with a central through-lobby doorway. Each doorway is framed by moulded architraves with cornices supported by consoles, and features panelled doors with overlights. The lobby doorway is notably small and has a plain surround. The windows have raised sills and wedge lintels, although the glazing has been altered. There are also heads of cellar windows on both sides of the houses. The buildings have ridge chimneys and shallow back yards. They match the architectural style of Nos. 11 and 12, as well as Nos. 13 and 14 to the left, and complement Nos. 2 to 8 on the opposite side of the street.
