156, Queens Road and St Marys Court 158 Queens Road

A pair of houses, built around 1845. They are located on Queens Road, with St Mary's Court (number 158) integrated into the design. The houses are constructed of amber brick with some stucco, and have pitched slate roofs with deep eaves supported by brackets. The design is two storeys with a stucco basement. The main façade has two bays, with lower, slightly set-back two-storey sections to the sides (one and two bays respectively). One-storey entrance links connect the houses at each end; the right-hand link is stucco and set back, while the left-hand link is canted, with blank niches on either side of the door, and features a loggia with patterned cast-iron supports and a bracketed lead canopy, now glazed in. A similar loggia is present on the ground floor of the inner sections. The windows are sash windows with glazing bars; those on the ground floor of the main sections have moulded stucco architraves with bracketed sills and cornices, and number 156 has cast-iron guards. All other windows have flat arches constructed from gauged brick. The interior has not been inspected. Numbers 152 and 154 Queens Road, numbers 156 and 158 Queens Road, and numbers 2-6 (even) St Mary’s Road form a group.
