56 And 58, Brandon Parade

56 and 58 Brandon Parade are a pair of houses, now used as offices, built around 1843 with later additions and alterations. They are constructed of reddish-brown brick in Flemish bond, featuring a painted stucco facade and a Welsh slate roof, designed in the Neo-Tudor style. The buildings have an H-shaped plan with a recessed center, projecting gabled wings, and further recessed ranges at the ends.

The exterior consists of two storeys with attics in the gables and at the rear, and there are six first-floor windows arranged in a pattern of 1:1:2:1:1. A chamfered plinth supports the structure. The entrances are located in the side ranges, set within projecting embattled porches that feature two steps leading up to long-panelled, four-centred doors framed by moulded surrounds with hoodmoulds. Each porch is flanked by stepped octagonal embattled columns and half-columns.

The projecting wings include canted bays over two storeys, while the center features single-storey rectangular bays. All these bays have cavetto-moulded wooden mullion and transom windows with casements set in chamfered surrounds. The design includes similar three-light mullion and transom windows, as well as lancet windows, all with chamfered surrounds, hoodmoulds, and floral stops. The center bays have moulded, chamfered angles, and there are decorative friezes and further cavetto-moulded cornices above each bay. The ends and center feature decorative blocking courses, with plain blocking courses at the center. The gable attics are adorned with fish-scale tiles on the left side. The roof is punctuated by four tall octagonal stacks and two tall stacks with chamfered angles, along with six similar stacks at the rear.

The rear of the buildings has two- and three-light mullion and transom windows, mostly featuring cambered arches. Inside, there are some moulded ceilings and two open-newel staircases with rod-on-bobbin balusters and barleytwist newel posts.

Historically, Brandon Parade was laid out around 1833, but the buildings were not shown as constructed until after 1843.
