Numbers 5-13 (Odd) And Attached Railings To Numbers 7 And 13

This is a terrace of five houses, built around 1815, with an additional building added around 1825. Located on Church Street in Royal Leamington Spa, the terrace is now a mix of shops, flats, and a house, with attached railings to numbers 7 and 13. The construction uses pinkish-brown brick with a painted stucco facade, topped with Welsh slate roofs. Cast-iron railings are also present.

The terrace follows a double-depth plan with side entrances, and extends over three storeys with attics and basements, except for number 5. The main range has ten first-floor windows, featuring a two-storey, single-bay extension to the left. The first floor windows consist of two 6/6 sash windows, followed by two tall 6/9 sash windows, two 6/6 sashes, and then four tall 6/9 sashes. The second floor has 3/6 sash windows throughout, all within plain reveals with sills. The ground floor has entrances to the right of each house, reached by four steps (with a roll edge to number 7), leading to doors with overlights and decorative glazing on number 11. Bay windows are located at numbers 7 and 11; the one at number 7 has a central 2/2 sash window between 1/1 sashes, while number 11 exhibits 1/1 sashes. Number 13 has casement windows with Gothic glazing, alongside 6/6 sashes. The basement windows include 20th-century casements and a 4/8 sash and a twenty-one pane sliding sash. A frieze and cornice run along the top, leading to a low parapet. Mid-20th century dormers are present on numbers 7 and 11, while skylights are elsewhere. The roof is finished with ridge stacks, raised gables, and coping stones. Balconies are incorporated into numbers 7, 11, and 13, featuring distinctive balustrade motifs: anthemion-within-circle for numbers 7 and 11, and an elongated figure of eight for number 13, all supported by decorative brackets.

The terrace connects to numbers 2-2A Church Terrace to the north, which are not included in this listing.

The interior has not been inspected.

Numbers 7 and 13 feature lancet area railings with gates.

Church Street was originally laid out around 1815 and developed by around 1825. The terrace forms an architectural group with number 3 Church Street. Number 5 was added in 1980. A minor amendment was made to this listing on 29 November 2016.
