Description
No. 5 Granville Road is a house built around 1900 by the architects Niven and Wigglesworth in the Queen Anne style. The exterior features pebbledash over brickwork, a brick plinth, a hipped tiled roof, and three battered rendered chimney stacks with brick tops. The building has two storeys and attics with an irregular arrangement of windows and an L-shaped plan.
The front elevation includes a three-light attic hipped dormer, a deep wooden bracket cornice, and large offset buttresses at the corners. On the first floor, there are two four-light wooden casements with two central panes that open. The ground floor features a three-light canted oriel window on the right side, topped with a wooden bressumer that extends over the left side doorcase. This doorcase has diagonally-placed wooden piers, an oak plank door with moulded architraves, and retains its original iron bell pull, letterbox, and handle.
The right side elevation includes an attic two-light casement, two tall battered chimneystacks, and curved staircase windows. The left side elevation has one first-floor casement, while the ground floor features two oriel windows and a doorcase with a wooden door and flat hood supported by diagonally placed square piers. The rear elevation has a hipped tiled roof with a three-light hipped dormer, three casements on the first floor, and a ground floor that includes a three-light casement, a bow window supported on a wooden bracket, and a stable door to the left.
Inside, the house has original two-panelled doors throughout, and the hall features two sets of wood and glazed screens. The panelled staircase is adorned with 18th-century style balusters. The lounge has a dentil cornice and a bolection moulded fireplace, while the dining room also has a dentil cornice and a wooden fireplace with a curved wooden cornice and panelled pilasters. One of the bedrooms includes an arched alcove and a wooden fireplace.
