Numbers 3 and 4 and Attached Front Garden Walls, Piers and Gates

Numbers 3 and 4 are a pair of attached houses built around 1860, located on Ivywell Road in Sneyd Park, Bristol. They are constructed from pennant ashlar with limestone dressings, featuring ashlar ridge and gable stacks, and have a slate cross-gabled valley roof. The houses are designed in the Gothic Revival style and consist of three storeys and a basement, arranged in a four-window range.

The architectural design is picturesque, with varied window styles, primarily ogee-headed casements. Number 3, on the right, has a projecting gable with a crenellated tower, leading up to a two-centre arched doorway that contains a plain 20th-century door. Above this doorway is a narrow canted oriel window with ogee-headed lights and a stone roof, along with a three-light mullion and transom window on the second floor. To the left of the gable is a canted nine-light timber oriel with a swept, tiled roof, a three-light mullion and transom window on the first floor, and a plain mullion window on the second floor.

Number 4 features a similar doorway within a two-storey porch beneath the left end gable. The front includes a wide two-storey bay with eight-light mullion and transom windows, which connects to the front gable of Number 3 with a curved continuation of the bay, topped with a dormer. The left rear gable has an octagonal turret, while the right end features a crenellated porch and a railed first-floor parapet. There is also a rear two-storey oriel window and linked ranges of octagonal stacks with cornices at the rear end gables and front ridge.

The attached front garden wall has banded rustication and piers with weathered caps, while Number 4 is equipped with cast-iron spear-headed gates. This composition is exceptionally well-designed, with influences from Ecclesiological architecture of the period, although the architect remains unknown.
