Description
The building comprises a pair of attached estate houses, dating from circa 1871 and designed by Joseph Goddard of Leicester. Constructed of polychrome red brick with blue brick and stone dressings, the houses are in the High Victorian Gothic style. They feature a steeply pitched patent tile roof with elaborate bargeboards to the gables, deep verges and eaves, and a central axial brick stack.
The plan is T-shaped, consisting of a pair of attached houses with projecting gables at the centre and porches in the angles to the left and right.
The symmetrical south-west front has a 1:2:1 bay arrangement. Projecting gables at the centre feature elaborate bargeboards with collars and braces at the apex. A blue brick band arches over pairs of pointed arch first-floor windows. Two canted ground-floor bay windows are present, each with a tiled canopy. Porches are situated to the left and right, each with a hipped tiled canopy on curved braces; a blue brick corbel table and a lancet stair window are above. Blue brick stringcourses continue on the left and right gable ends, arching over pairs of pointed arch windows. The building has a plinth with blue brick weathering.
The interior of the houses has not been inspected.
It’s a good example of a pair of High Victorian Gothic estate houses.
