Description
No 8 Queen Anne Street is a corner terraced town house built between 1914 and 1915 by W H White. It is constructed from Portland stone with a channelled ground floor and features a slate roof. The building is designed in a Free Dixhuitieme style and has four storeys, a basement, and a dormered mansard roof.
The façade is three windows wide, with the entrance located in a five-bay return to Mansfield Street. There is an off-centre left doorway with an architraved concave reveal. The front displays canted bay windows on the ground and first floors to the right, along with a single window to the left. All windows have architraved sash lights, and the bay and left-hand window are topped with a matching cornice and bombé parapet detail. The upper floors feature architraves, cornices, and vertically linked foliated surrounds. A plat band runs above the ground floor, and there are paired console brackets between the third-floor windows supporting a crowning cornice with a parapet.
The first-floor windows are adorned with cast iron Louis XV-Louis XVI balconettes. The long return is flanked by full-height canted bays with concave sides, topped with panelled shouldered chimney stacks and sash windows, one on either side of a two-storey central canted bay. At the third-floor level, there is an open paired Ionic column loggia between the flanking canted bays. The property is enclosed by cast iron area railings. The detailing of No 8 is similar to that of No 3 Mansfield Street, which features a garden colonnade that connects with the return of No 8.
