Description

28 and 29 St George's Square are two semi-detached houses, designed to appear as a single large house, built around 1830 to 1840 with later additions and alterations. The houses are constructed of brick with painted stucco dressings and feature a hipped slate roof, along with two west end-wall and two party-wall ridge stacks that have oversailing details and pots. The layout is double-depth, with a central entrance providing access to No. 29, while No. 28 is accessed from an early 20th-century two-storey wing with a hipped slate roof set back on the right side. There are single-storey service ranges at the rear.

The symmetrical facade rises three storeys above a cellar and includes three first-floor windows. The stucco detailing features a Tuscan-style porch and a tooled architrave with a semi-circular head above the central doorway. The doorcase of the east wing is pilastered and has a broken pediment. The central first-floor window is a French window with margin-glazing, while the other windows on the main facade are 8/8 sashes, except for the second floor which has 4/4 sashes. All windows have plain reveals with sills and flat gauged brick arches. A flight of four steps leads to the four-panel central entrance door, which has upper glazed panels and lower panels that are flush-beaded, with panelled reveals and a fanlight in a petal design. The east wing features two first-floor windows with 1/1 sashes, and a flight of five steps leads to a six-panel entrance door, where the top pair is raised and fielded, the centre pair is glazed, and the bottom panels are flush-beaded.

A notable feature is the individual balcony at the central first-floor window, which has cast-iron balusters in a scrolled-heart design, similar to those found at No. 23 St. George's Square. These houses share a similar design with Nos. 30 and 31 St. George's Square.
