Description
62 St Edward Street is a former house now used as offices, consisting of two distinct buildings. The main building dates from 1724, while the other has a later facade but may have an earlier core. The exterior features coursed and squared stone, brick, and plain-tiled roofs.
The central entrance has a moulded case with an entablature above, and the date is displayed in a deeply moulded arched stone with a gilded monogram. To the right of the entrance is a 3-light mullioned and transomed window with 4-centred arched glazing. A similar glazing style is found in a canted bay to the left of the doorway and in the upper windows, which retain small panes. There are plain stone bands above the windows on each storey and a moulded eaves cornice. The roof has two 3-light mullioned dormer windows with coped gables and moulded kneelers, and there is a stack on the left-hand gable.
The left part of the building has been refronted with brick, and the render in the gable walls and steep roof pitch suggest a possible timber-framed core. There is a segmental archway over the doorway to the left, which is cut by No. 64, dated 1747. Each floor features paired 8-pane sashes without glazing bars in the lower lights, with flat-arched brick heads and painted stone keys. A narrow 8-pane sash window is located above the entry to the left, and similar windows on the upper floors are divided as 12-pane sashes. The eaves have a parapet, and lead rainwater goods at the junction of the two buildings feature feather-like leadwork on the rainwater head and fleur-de-lys motifs on the wall-mounting straps. There are end wall stacks.
Inside, the stone building retains its original staircase against the rear wall, which is lit by a full-height mullioned and transomed window, featuring turned balusters and moulded tread ends.
