Description

The building known as the Offices to the rear of Huntingdon Hall at No. 16 Deansway in Worcester is a terrace of three cottages that have been converted into offices. It was likely constructed around 1804 for the Countess of Huntingdon's Chapel, which is now Huntingdon Hall. The building has undergone alterations, particularly in the 1980s when Huntingdon Hall was transformed into a concert hall and arts centre by the City of Worcester Building Preservation Trust and reopened in 1987.

The structure is made of pinkish-red brick laid in Flemish bond, featuring renewed stone sills and timber doorcases. It has a slate roof with off-centre right and right end stacks that have oversailing courses and pots. The building is two storeys high and has five first-floor windows. The first floor is adorned with 8/8 cambered-arched sash windows, while the ground floor has 10/15 cambered-arched sash windows, all with renewed stone sills and cambered arches made of gauged brick.

The entrances include renewed 8-panel double doors located off-centre to the left within a pedimented doorcase, and a pair of off-centre right entrances featuring renewed part-glazed doors set in a shared, tooled architrave with a frieze and flattened pediments. The right return of the building is one bay deep, and the first floor has a blind opening.

Inside, there is a renewed dogleg staircase located off-centre to the right. The building abuts Huntingdon Hall and is contemporary with it.
