Description
This is a terrace of houses built in 1880 on Fifth Avenue, Westminster, by Austin and Roland Plumbe for the Queen's Park Estate, a development intended for artisans, labourers, and general dwellings. The terrace is constructed of yellow brick in a Flemish bond, with irregular bands and detailing in red brick. It has a Welsh slate roof with bands of fish-scale tiling to the 'tower' roof. The terrace comprises 67 to 81, and is two storeys high, with each house having two bays. The end house to the south has a projecting two-bay block with a pyramidal roof forming a tower feature.
The architectural style is Free Gothic. Gabled porches supported on corbels contain paired entrances with half-glazed doors and overlights, all under red gauged brick keyed arches. A ceramic date plaque is set into the porch gable, and the brickwork has painted detailing. The windows are paired sashes with dividing colonettes and painted lintels. Above, further sashes are present, some with margin lights, with sills on corbels and painted lintels. A moulded brick eaves course is visible, as is corniced stacks. The end house to the south has an entrance to the return wall and is treated as a tower, with paired sashes to both floors and a pyramidal roof with a finial.
The terrace, along with numbers 83-97, 68-82, and 84-98, forms a balanced group of terraces with tower features at both ends, which contribute to the main street of the Estate.
