St Vincent'S Parade, And Attached Front Area Railings And Gates

This is a terrace of nine houses located on St Vincent's Parade in Hotwells, Bristol, built in 1789. It is possibly the work of John Eveleigh. The houses are constructed of limestone ashlar with party wall stacks and a pantile double-pile mansard roof. They are arranged with a double-depth plan and represent a Late Georgian style.

Each house has three storeys, an attic, and a basement, with a three-window front. The facade is articulated with pilasters reaching to a frieze, cornice, and parapet, and features a rusticated ground floor and a plat band. The right-hand doorways have panelled jambs, entablature blocks with raised leaf decoration, semicircular arched doorways with fanlights, and six-panel doors with the upper four panels having cut-out corners. The window arrangement features six-pane sashes on the first floor, three-pane sashes on the second floor, and two raking dormers each. Balconies are present on the first floor of numbers 374-382, with number 382 having elaborate cast-iron railings, while the others have wrought-iron pointed-arched railings.

The interior includes an entrance hall divided by a semicircular arch, a rear dogleg staircase with stick balusters, a wreathed and ramped handrail with curtail, and six-panel doors with panelled shutters. Attached to the front are railings and gates. The terrace is linked stylistically to the work of Eveleigh, who designed the Mall (now numbers 1-13 West Mall). The development was undertaken by Samuel Powell.
