Description

No. 5 is a house, now converted into flats, dating from approximately 1783, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It was developed by John Fielder and Thomas and James Beale. The front of the building is faced with limestone ashlar, while the lower part has rubble stonework where the basement windows are located, and these are not visible from the rear. It has a double pile, parapeted mansard roof that projects further towards the front on the left-hand side. The front section of the roof is covered with Welsh slate, while the rear is not visible. A large ashlar chimney stack with early clay pots is located on the front slope of the roof to the right. The property shares a coped party wall with No. 6 Brunswick Place.

Brunswick Place is a quasi-symmetrical group of buildings, with projecting pavilions at each end of the terrace (Nos. 1 and 6) and a design that continues horizontally. No. 5 is a two-bay house, with the bay on the left being part of the pavilion at the terrace's left end. A staircase is located at the front.

The exterior is three storeys high, with an attic and basement, and has a two-window front. On the first floor, there is a six/six pane horned sash window in a plain reveal to the left, and a plate glass horned sash window with splayed jambs to the right. The second floor has a six/six pane horned sash window in a plain reveal with splayed jambs and a stone sill to the left. On the ground floor, there is a plate glass horned sash window in a splayed reveal and a stone sill to the right, and a four-panel door (likely originally six-panel) with flush beaded and glazed panels, and two Pennant steps within a pedimented Doric doorcase. The basement has two plate glass sashes in splayed reveals and a continuous stone sill; there are no steps in front of the crossover. A single dormer window with a 20th-century window, featuring a single pane, is present in the right side return of the projecting bay on the left. Other exterior features include a band course above the ground floor, a weathered stone sill band to the first floor, a bracketed eaves cornice, and a coped parapet. A lead hopperhead and downpipe are located in the angle of the building. The rear elevation is not visible.

The interior of the building has not been inspected.

Attached to the property are wrought iron railings with shaped heads, a lifting section, and a crane, all mounted on limestone bases.
