Description
This early 19th-century building comprises three houses, Nos. 26, 27, and 28, on Chesham Place in London. They present a unified design and are stucco-faced, each house displaying three windows. No. 26 has undergone some alterations to its details. A prominent feature is the Greek Doric porch in the center of the building, extending to the first and second floors with a pilaster order and a pediment above the attic. These houses contribute to the vista from Belgrave Square. Original cast iron area railings remain.
