57,58,59, Frenchwood Street

Nos. 57, 58, and 59 Frenchwood Street are a row of three small townhouses built around 1835 to 1840, with alterations and ongoing rebuilding at No. 57. The houses are constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with No. 57 painted white at the first floor, No. 58 painted red, and No. 59 featuring tuck-pointing. They have sandstone dressings and a slate roof. Each house has a double-depth plan, is single-fronted, and has back extensions, with Nos. 57 and 58 joined together. There are through-lobbies to the left of No. 57 and between Nos. 58 and 59.

The buildings are two storeys high over cellars, with a total of 2+2+3 bays. They feature a plinth, a first-floor sill band, a plain frieze, and a moulded gutter cornice. The doorways are coupled in the centre of Nos. 57 and 58, and positioned to the right at No. 59. These doorways have moulded architraves with dentilled cornices on consoles and steps leading up to the doors. The lobby doorways, located to the left at No. 57 and in the centre between Nos. 58 and 59, have chamfered surrounds and small cornices. Each house has one window at the ground floor and two above, although No. 59 also has a blind window above the lobby doorway to the left. All windows, except the blind one, have altered glazing, with ground floor windows featuring raised sills and wedge lintels. There are cellar windows set in the plinth and large linear multi-flue common chimney stacks.

At the rear, No. 57 has been taken down for rebuilding, and the interior has mostly been stripped down to brick, although the front parlour retains a window case with shutters. The property is part of a previously complete set of late Georgian lower-middle class townhouses on this street.
