Description
Lancaster Corner and Porchester Lodge are a pair of semi-detached villas built in the early 19th century. They feature brick with stucco dressings and stand two stories tall with a basement, each having three windows. The outer bay of each villa is slightly set forward and has rounded corners, creating a flatish bow effect. The entrances are round-headed and located in the center bays, with panelled partly glazed doors. The windows are square-headed, architraved, and consist of sashes with plate glass. There are also central blind windows between the two houses. Each villa has a stucco cornice and a parapet with a pedimental projection. Notably, No 100 was the residence of Sir James Barrie, who lived from 1860 to 1937.
