11, Sir Harry'S Road B15

This is an 1850s detached red brick villa with stucco dressings, located on Sir Harry’s Road in Edgbaston. The building presents an asymmetrical design consisting of a two-story, two-bay main block flanked by single-story bays. One single-story bay contains the entrance, another is blind, and both are connected by a down-swept screen wall that extends to the plot boundary, featuring a carriage archway leading to a yard.

The elevation includes a deep plinth, with its coping acting as the ground floor sill course. The first floor sill course is carried over as parapet coping onto the flanking single-story bays. Architectural detailing includes a bed mould to the frieze, large scrolled consoles supporting the flat eaves of the hipped slate roof, and two dormers with decorated pediment gables. Corniced chimney stacks are topped with ornamental pots. Windows are widely spaced. First-floor windows are marginal glazed sashes in eared architrave surrounds with stepped heads. The ground floor features a large, eared architrave framed window, also marginal glazed, with a pulvinated frieze and cornice to the left, and a large tripartite stucco bay window with cornice and a blocking course to the right. The entrance, approached by steps, is framed by a surround matching that of the adjacent hall window in the main block. The down-swept screen wall to the northwest has a parapet coping.
