Description
The building comprises two pairs of semi-detached villas located at 3-6 St Alban’s Villas. Dating from the mid-19th century, they are constructed of colour-rendered brick with stucco dressings and horizontal bands on the upper floors. The corners feature clasping pilasters, while the ground floor is rusticated, with the second floor pilasters of the Ionic order, paired at the party walls. The roofs are slate, with long, slab chimney stacks on the party walls.
The villas are three storeys high, with semi-basements. Each pair has two windows on the front elevation, plus a single window in a narrow, two-storey linking bay. Round-arched entrances are framed by rusticated voussoirs. Ground floor canted bays rise from the basement level, featuring rusticated mullions with keystones above the windows, topped with a parapet and a continuous band. A bowed three-light window is located between numbers 4 and 5. Casement windows are fitted to the upper floors, with architraves; the first floor windows have ‘eared’ cornices and sill brackets, and the second floor windows have sill brackets.
The interiors have not been inspected.
