29, Northampton Street

29 Northampton Street is a house built after 1819 by GP Manners. It features limestone ashlar on the front and rear, with a double pile roof that has a parapet at the front and is covered with concrete tiles. The house has a coped party wall and two rebuilt brick stacks with some early clay pots on the right side.

The exterior consists of three storeys and a basement, with a single window front. The first floor has an eight-over-eight sash window in a plain reveal with a stone sill and a wrought iron balconette. The second floor has a four-over-eight sash window to the right and a three-over-six sash window to the left, both horned sashes in plain reveals with stone sills. On the ground floor, there is an eight-over-eight horned sash window to the right, set in a splayed reveal partially above ground and with a grating in the pavement, along with a small single pane window to the right. The building features a moulded cornice over the first floor, a lintel at the eaves, and a coped parapet. The rear elevation, which is partially visible, has glazing bar sashes on the upper floor and a small two-light window on the second landing of the stairs.

The interior was inspected in 1981 and includes original stairs with Doric newels and some retained original fireplaces.

Historically, Northampton Street and its adjacent development began around 1791, designed by Thomas Baldwin as a trustee for William Pulteney. The work continued from 1794 after the bankruptcy of the main contractors, with elevations on leases signed by Thomas Chantry and John Pinch, marking Chantry's first major work. The project was completed after 1819, with plans and elevations on leases signed by GP Manners. The lower part of the street was significantly impacted by bomb damage in 1942 and subsequent redevelopment.
