Description
46 and 48 Portland Place are a pair of houses located in Royal Leamington Spa. Number 46 was built in 1842, while Number 48 was added between 1852 and 1861, with later modifications including mid-20th century roof dormers. The houses are constructed of pinkish-brown brick with painted stucco facades and feature a Welsh slate roof with cast-iron balconies.
The buildings rise three storeys with basements and attics, and each has four first-floor windows. The ground floor displays horizontal rustication, while the first floor features 8-pane French windows. The second floor has 6/6 sash windows set in plain reveals. There is a frieze, cornice, and a low parapet above. The ground floor has four steps leading to side entrances, which include four-panel doors; the left door is part-glazed and both have overlights within tooled architraves. The windows include 6/6 and 1/1 sashes, and the basement has part-glazed and panel doors along with 6/6 sashes. A ridge stack is present, and the first floor has ornamental balconies with a scroll design on the left.
The interior has not been inspected. Notably, Number 48 does not appear on the 1852 Board of Health Plan but is listed as occupied in the 1861 Census report. Portland Place was laid out in 1823-1824, and these houses serve as a significant focal point at the southern end of Portland Street.
