Totterdown Baptist Church and Attached Front Area Walls

Totterdown Baptist Church is a Baptist chapel built in 1880 by Alfred Harford. It features a design in the Romanesque Revival style, constructed from pennant rubble with limestone dressings and topped with a slate hipped and gable roof. The building is two storeys high and has a symmetrical front with a gabled centre that is set forward. This centre includes a first-floor band with sunken roundels, moulded impost bands, gableted kneelers, and a moulded coping. The lower outer sections have hipped roofs and single-storey gabled porches with buttressed sides. Each porch has a semicircular-arched doorway with imposts, attached colonnettes, and oculi above, leading to 2-leaf doors with strap hinges.

The central ground floor features an arcade of six semicircular-arched windows with carved capitals at the ends and small colonnettes. The first floor has tripartite semicircular-arched windows with panelled aprons between plinths that support attached colonnettes, paired to the taller middle window. The windows include horizontal glazing bars and stained-glass margin panes. Above the doorways, there are paired semicircular-arched windows beneath a segmental-arched label with stops. The return elevations have seven-window ranges, with paired first-floor windows in segmental-arched ashlar surrounds above three-light mullion windows.

Inside, there is a three-sided balcony supported by cast-iron columns, featuring bowed cast-iron railings. Similar railings are present at the raised preaching box at the east end, which has steps on each side. There is also an organ located in the southeast corner.
