Description
27A and 27B in Britannia Square are two semi-detached houses built around 1820, with later additions and alterations. They feature painted stucco over brick and have a hipped slate roof with four stacks, two located on the party wall and two at the ends, all adorned with wide moulded cornice details and pots. The entrance wings rise full-height and are set back from the return elevations. The houses are two storeys tall and have four first-floor windows arranged in a 1:2:1 pattern. The stucco detailing includes a plinth and eaves band, along with a later 19th-century canted bay window that has a cornice and blocking course. All windows are 2/2 sashes, except for the right ground-floor bay, which has 1/1 sashes, all set in plain reveals with sills. The entrance doors are six-panel designs with fanlights featuring radial glazing bars, although the door and fanlight for No. 27B have been renewed.
These houses are part of a group of listed buildings in Britannia Square, which were developed starting in 1820 around a large green where the main house, Springfield, is situated. They are comparable to other similar but smaller developments in Worcester, such as Lansdowne Crescent, Lark Hill, and Rainbow Hill Terrace.
