Description
Nos. 3, 4, and 5, Queen's Place, Southsea, are a terrace of four houses dating to 1847, designed by Thomas Ellis Owen. No. 50 St Edward's Road, now flats, completes the terrace. The houses are constructed with stucco and have Welsh slate roofs; No. 50 has a hipped roof, and a slate chimney stack is located between Nos. 3/4 and 4/5.
The principal facade is two storeys high with a basement, while No. 50, St Edward's Road has three storeys. The facade is eleven bays wide (a 3:3:3:2 arrangement). Each of Nos. 3, 4, and 5 features a projecting, single-storey porch at the centre, with a cornice and flat roof. Nos. 3 and 5 have round-arched timber trellis infill to the front of their porches. A moulded band runs at dado level, and narrow fixed casements are set into the left and right returns of the porches. A flight of three stone steps leads to the porches, where a six-panelled door with a fanlight is recessed and set under a round, stuccoed arch. Flanking the door are 16-pane sashes, each under a flat, stuccoed arch with a recessed apron. The first floor has a sill band and three similar sashes, centred with six panes, and flanking with eight panes, all with recessed aprons. The St Edward's Road elevation of No. 50 has rusticated quoin strips. It has two 12-pane sashes, with a plain band above their heads; a moulded band breaks between two full-height 12-pane sashes, each with a moulded architrave and leading to a small stuccoed balcony with iron guard rails. The second floor has a moulded sillband and two 9-pane unequal sashes, each under a flat, stuccoed arch with a plain architrave and keystone.
The right return facade facing St Edward's Road is five bays wide, featuring similar rusticated quoins, sillbands, and sashes. A later, projecting, single-storey porch with a two-leaf, fully glazed 20th-century door is centrally located within a round-arched recess, with narrow round-arched casements on the left and right returns. It has a stepped block parapet and flat roof. A later two-storey, flat-roofed bay window extends to the ground and first floors, with four lights wide, a central transom, eight casements to the front and narrow side casements. A further later two-storey extension is to the right, featuring an eight-pane sash to the left and a 16-pane sash to the right on the ground floor, and a 12-pane sash on the left and a three-light oriel on the right on the first floor.
