Description

St Elizabeth's is a house built around 1900, located on Redcatch Road in Knowle, Bristol. It is constructed from squared, coursed Lias rubble with limestone dressings and features a plain tile roof adorned with decorative ridges and brick stacks. The building is designed in the Jacobethan style and consists of a main block with front and rear wings forming a cross shape, along with a right-hand extension.

The elevation facing Redcatch Road has two storeys and a basement, while the main block behind has three storeys, with the right extension being two storeys tall. The fenestration is varied, and the building includes a plinth and weathered plat bands at the ground and first floors. The gables are topped with corbelled kneelers and raised copings, featuring ball finials. A tall lateral chimney range is present, with angled bricks creating vertical projections.

The openings have irregular jambs and flat lintels, framed by moulded surrounds and rubble relieving arches. The entrance wing on the right has ground-floor single-light windows with cinquefoil ogee heads containing stained glass, along with casements, and above are two-light mullioned windows. The remaining windows are mullioned and transomed on the ground floor, with stained glass above the transoms. To the left, there is a two-storey, three-sided bay at the angle with the main block, featuring four-light windows.

Steps lead up to a large doorway in the gable that opens into the central hall, which has an elliptical, moulded stopped archivolt in a label with diamond stops, and a two-leaf door. A tall nine-light stained glass window is positioned to the left. On the right, a two-storey extension with a single-window range projects, and behind it is a 20th-century flat roof extension.

The left side elevation facing Agnes Avenue has wide four-light windows on the ground and first floors, and three-light windows on the second floor, along with large brick chimney ranges featuring diagonal stacks. Inside, there is an open-well staircase with four curtail steps, decorative fireplaces, and panelled soffits and reveals for the ovolo-moulded windows in the main left-hand side and rear ground-floor rooms. The ground-floor door architraves have reeded sides and nail head angles.
