Description

A pair of attached houses built around 1840, possibly designed by Charles Underwood. The houses are constructed of limestone ashlar and stucco with limestone dressings, featuring party wall stacks and a slate hipped roof. They are built in a Neoclassical style with a double-depth plan. Each house has three storeys and a basement, with a two-window front. The symmetrical front has shallow wings with single-storey porches to each side, featuring pilasters and overhanging eaves. The doorways have rectangular overlights with margin panes and eight-panel doors. The rear garden front is also symmetrical, with raised sections where the windows are set, banded ashlar on the ground floor and second-floor sill bands. The ground and first-floor windows are tripartite with pilaster jambs on the ground floor and architraves with cornices to the first, containing six-pane sashes. Second-floor windows also have pilaster jambs and a panel above, with three-pane sashes. First-floor balconies have cast-iron railings. The interior remains uninspected. Attached to the houses are cast-iron basement area railings, a rubble retaining wall with a scrolled cast-iron railing in front of the entrances, and coursed red sandstone rubble walls with capped piers to the rear garden. The houses form part of a group with Numbers 26-33, enclosing the north-west side of the square.
