Description
No. 1 Bairstow Street is part of a row of three small townhouses located on a corner site, built around 1830 and altered since. The houses are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with sandstone dressings and a slate roof. They have a double-depth plan, with Nos. 45 and 46 being single-fronted to Chaddock Street, while No. 1 Bairstow Street is double-fronted and has back extensions. There is no through-lobby; access to the yards is via a back alley from Bairstow Street.
The buildings are two storeys over cellars, featuring a four-window range on Chaddock Street and a three-window return on Bairstow Street. Architectural details include a first-floor sill-band, a plain frieze, and a moulded gutter cornice that runs around the buildings. The doorways are positioned to the left of No. 45, to the right of No. 46, and offset to the left in the Bairstow Street facade. Each doorway is accessed by one, three, or three steps respectively and features round-headed architraves with set-in Tuscan quarter-columns, plain lintels, and semicircular fanlights with hollow-moulded surrounds. The fanlights at No. 45 and No. 1 Bairstow Street have radiating glazing bars, while No. 46 has been altered.
On the Chaddock Street facade, each house has one window at ground floor, with No. 46 having two at first floor, while the others have one each. The Bairstow Street facade has three windows on each floor. The windows of No. 45 are sashed without glazing bars, while the others have altered glazing. All windows have raised sills and wedge lintels, and the cellar windows feature wedge lintels and gratings, except for No. 46, which has an iron plate. The roof is hipped over the right-hand corner, and chimneys are located at the junctions. The rear and interiors were not inspected. This row forms part of an almost complete set of late Georgian lower-middle class houses in the area, which was formerly known as Chaddock Place.
