Description
Park House is an early 19th-century building located on Palmerston Street. It is two stories tall and constructed of stucco, featuring flat eaves supported by pairs of cut brackets and a hipped slate roof. The first floor has three windows, while the ground floor has two sash windows, each three panes wide and set in reveals. To the left, there is a six-panel door, with the center panels being moulded and the top two panels cut away and glazed, all within a panelled reveal framed by an architrave.
The building has a well-proportioned, shallow Doric porch that features two columns, which are fluted in the upper part. This porch supports a triglyph frieze decorated with roundels and a moulded cornice that rests on flat brackets with guttae beneath. A flight of five moulded steps, flanked by iron railings and a handrail, leads up to the doorway. The handrail and railings terminate in a scroll with an urn finial on the terminal rail.
Park House is part of a group of listed buildings on Palmerston Street, which includes Nos 70 to 84 (even) and 47 to 55 (odd) The Hundred.
