27 and 28 Queen Square

27 and 28 Queen Square are a pair of attached houses, now used as offices, dating from the early 18th century. They are constructed of brick and render with limestone dressings, featuring brick valley stacks and a pantile double-pile roof. The houses are designed in an early Georgian style and have a double-depth plan.

Each house has three storeys, a basement, and an attic, with a two-window range. They form a matching pair, although no. 27 is now rendered and parapeted, while no. 28 is missing its string courses, modillion cornices, and boxed eaves. The right-hand doorways are adorned with attractive bracketed shell hoods, rectangular overlights with fanned glazing bars, and six-panel doors. Both houses have rubbed brick arches with stone keys above six-over-six pane sashes, although no. 28 features plate glass.

Inside, no. 27 includes a panelled entrance hall with a framed side wall, a glazed screen, and a half-glazed door with margin bars, as well as a semicircular arch on fluted pilasters. It also has a rear dogleg stair with an uncut string, column-on-vase balusters, square newels, and a wreathed, moulded rail, along with four-panel doors and panelled shutters. No. 28 has a similar interior.

These houses are among the few remaining original structures in Queen Square, which was laid out in 1699 and is considered the largest square in England. They were built between 1701 and 1727, following varied width leases and similar designs.
