Queen'S Crescent

Queen's Crescent consists of a row of houses located on Queen's Road, built between 1832 and 1833, designed by architect J J Cooper. This slight crescent features houses that are arranged at an angle to follow the curve of the road. The buildings are three storeys tall and constructed from Bath stone ashlar, with a channelled ground floor. There is a band above the ground floor, a plain cornice, and a parapet. Each house has three ranges of glazing bar sash windows, with the centre window on the first floor topped by a pediment. The ground floor windows are round-headed, with one window each for most houses, while No 44 has been combined from two houses into one, featuring a 1+3 window arrangement. The entrances have bracketed hoods above four-panel doors, which are complemented by rectangular overlights and architrave surrounds. The roofs are butterfly-shaped with brick chimneys. Notably, No 40 is rendered, and No 24 does not have a door but features three round-headed windows on the ground floor.
