Description
No. 2 Campden Hill Square is a terrace house built around 1826-1828, designed by architect George Edward Valintine as part of the Campden Hill Square estate developed by Joshua Flesher Hanson. The house features stock brick above a rendered basement, with end stacks and a roof that is obscured by parapets.
The exterior consists of three storeys and a basement, with a double-fronted, four-bay layout. The central two bays are set back, while the outer bays are square with rounded corners. The central bays have narrow windows with margin-light surrounds. The right-hand bay contains the entrance door, which is accessed by steps and features a six-panelled door in a pilastered surround, topped with a rectangular light decorated with oval tracery. A band runs along the first floor, and there are wrought-iron plant boxes with anthemion decoration.
The interior has not been inspected. Notably, No. 2 is a mirror image of No. 52 on the opposite side of the square, except for the absence of a portico. Joshua Flesher Hanson was the first occupant of No. 2, living there from 1828 to 1831. The property was previously listed in error as No. 8 Campden Hill Square.
