1-4, Codrington Place

A terrace of four houses built in 1852 by Pope, Bindon and Clarke. The houses are constructed of limestone ashlar with lateral and party wall stacks and a pantile hipped roof. They follow a double-depth plan and are in a Neoclassical style. The terrace is two storeys high with an attic and basement, and has a 12-window range. It's composed of two symmetrical pairs linked by a two-window central section. Each pair features a central, full-height three-light canted bay. A plat band, frieze, and cornice are present, with a coped attic storey above. The ground floor of the bays is banded. Doorways are located in the end returns and the central section; the central doorways are semicircular arched with late Georgian metal fanlights and two-leaf, half-glazed doors, within recessed surrounds with moulded lintels. A balustrade sits above the doorways, with the upper floors set back, and a matching arch with a two-light window is positioned inside the door. The return elevations are symmetrical, with single-storey open porches leading to two-leaf doors and overlights with diagonal bars. Ground-floor windows are recessed with moulded lintels, and the bays incorporate tripartite windows with 6/6-pane and flanking 2/2-pane sashes. First-floor windows have architraves and cornices, and attic windows have cills that break the cornice, also featuring 6/6-pane sashes. Number 2 has a right-hand canted oriel with a moulded base. The interior was not inspected. The terrace is an unusual design, consisting of two disguised semi-detached pairs.
