Description
23 Queen Square is a house built between 1810 and 1815, designed by John and George Bischoff. The building is made of rendered brick and has a slate roof. It is two storeys tall and has one bay. The entrance features a panelled door on the right, framed by a wooden surround with pilasters, console brackets, and a cornice. To the left, there is a 16-pane sash window that has been replaced, with a stone sill and a wedge lintel on both the ground and upper floors. A multiflue stack is located on the ridge to the left. The interior has not been inspected. The square began development in 1806 with two houses on the northwest side; this side was the second stage, which included nine smaller houses constructed between 1810 and 1815.
