Description
19 and 20 Albion Square, built in the mid-19th century, are a pair of two-storey buildings with a basement, each featuring two windows. They are constructed of grey brick and have a stucco frieze, cornice, and blocking course. The central part of the buildings is recessed, while the outer bays are slightly set back. The first floor has round-arched windows that are paired in the center, framed in stucco with console bracketed cornices. The ground floor features tripartite windows with similar stucco surrounds and a central pediment. All windows are sashes with glazing bars. The doors consist of two long panels and are located in quasi-classical prostyle porches. Nos 13 to 22, which are consecutive, form a group.
