Description
32 St George Street is a terrace town house built in the early 18th century, around 1717-1720, with some alterations made in the late 19th century. The building has been refaced in dark brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof. It stands four storeys high and is five windows wide, with rusticated brick and stone quoin piers. The ground floor has a late 19th-century shop front that was altered in the mid-20th century, along with a central doorway from the same period. The upper floors maintain their original window arrangement, featuring sash windows with late 19th-century glazing set in stone surrounds. The first-floor windows have camber heads, and the windows on the first and second floors are linked by a rusticated apron. There is a cornice below the third floor, and the parapet and coping were renewed in the late 19th century, featuring a carved brickwork pediment crest in the center that is dated 1888.
The interior has been altered in the late 19th and mid-20th centuries. This building is part of Lord Scarborough's Hanover Square development, which introduced a German-Hanoverian facade style and a Baroque layout for the area.
