Number 11 and Attached Railings

This is a house, built around 1823, and later used as a youth hostel. It was designed by James Piggott Pritchett. The house is constructed of red brick with a stone plinth and has a low-pitched slate roof with stone copings. It is three storeys high with a basement and attic, and has six windows on each of the main facades. A stone staircase with flanking railings leads to the central entrance, which features a panelled door, a moulded architrave, a cornice supported by large console brackets, and an overlight. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars; the upper storey has nine-pane windows, while the ground floor windows have recessed apron panels and flat brick arches. There are cast-iron panels to the basement windows, and internal shutters to the ground floor. Gable copings are present, along with multi-flue stacks at each end and along the ridge. The rear elevation is four storeys high, featuring six-pane windows below the eaves. A left return displays blocked original windows, and a semicircular attic window. The interior has not been inspected. The house is part of the layout of Hanover Square, designed by Pritchett, and was built for George Rawson, as Pritchett worked for him on the square, which was never completed.
