Description

House, built around 1820-1840 and subsequently altered, is now used as flats. It is constructed of painted stucco over brick, with a hipped slate roof and end stacks featuring brick detailing and missing pots. The building is double-depth, with an entrance in the right-return.

The exterior has two storeys and a basement, with four windows on the first floor. Stucco detailing includes sills, a plinth, corner pilasters with capitals, a simple frieze with a moulded upper edge, rectangular recessed panels, and a doorcase on the right-return elevation. The stucco is scored to resemble ashlar. The four ground-floor windows are 6/6 sash windows, matching those on the first floor, and are set in plain reveals with sills, each fitted with external louvered timber shutters. The basement has twentieth-century windows. A twentieth-century block retaining wall defines the rear area. The entrance door, located in the right-return, is accessed via an open semi-circular headed archway within a single-storey link to the adjacent house at number 8. This link features a twentieth-century glazed entrance door with a radial fanlight and segmental margin-glazing, and a doorcase with paired pilasters and an incised Greek-key motif within a moulded frame. The steps to the entrance have also been altered in the twentieth century. Two first-floor sash windows are present on the right-return, which is unrendered. The left-return has no windows and is also unrendered. A set-back single-storey stucco link to the adjacent house on the left has a blind archway. A two-storey wing extends to the rear right.

The interior has not been inspected. The general appearance of number 10 is similar to numbers 6 and 8, and 12-30 of Albany Terrace, but with differing details.

Albany Terrace is situated on the north side of Britannia Square and is part of an important Regency-era development in Worcester.
