Description

This is a terrace of three houses built between 1830 and 1833, with later alterations to the windows in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The architect was C.A. Busby. The houses are constructed of stucco over brick and rubble, with a hidden roof behind a parapet. They form part of a U-shaped group of terraces known as Lansdowne Square.

The buildings are three storeys tall, with a basement, and have a five-bay front, although the right-hand bay is set back where it joins number 4. Giant pilasters run up the front, supporting an entablature and a moulded cornice running along the top of the second, or attic, floor. This continues as a low parapet. The second and fourth bays on the left are narrower, with doorways to numbers 1 and 2. Most of the windows are sash windows with a single vertical bar to each pane. Number 1 has a more modern rustic door and numbers 2 and 3 have early 20th-century doors. Cast-iron railings extend from the entrances along the street frontage, with gates leading to the basement area.
