Description

No. 55 Queen Charlotte Street is an attached house that has been converted into an office. It was built around 1730 and features a rendered exterior with limestone dressings. The building has a party wall stack and a roof that is not visible. It is designed in the early Georgian style and consists of four storeys with a three-window range. The left side has quoins and a timber modillion eaves cornice. The left-hand doorcase is pedimented and flanked by attached Tuscan columns, featuring a six-pane fanlight above a 20th-century door. The windows have architraves with raised cornices, and there are pediments above the central first-floor and outer second-floor windows. The first-floor windows are nine over six pane sashes, while the upper sashes are six over six panes, with plate glass on the ground floor. The interior has been extensively altered in the mid to late 20th century.
