Description
Number 61 is an attached house, now used as an office, dating from the early 18th century. It is constructed of brick with limestone dressings, featuring a gable stack and a double-pile roof covered with pantiles. The building has a double-depth plan and exhibits early Georgian architectural style. Notable features include rusticated quoins, string courses at each floor level, and a timber cornice with modillions at the eaves. The left-hand doorway is adorned with a shell hood supported by scrolled brackets, a three-pane fanlight above a rectangular overlight, and a six-panel door with the top four panels raised. The windows are fitted with brick flat arches and keys, with nine-over-nine pane sashes on the lower floors and six-over-six pane sashes on the second floor, all featuring thick glazing bars in exposed frames. There is also one hipped dormer with a nine-pane window.
Inside, the ground-floor rooms at the front and rear are panelled and separated by folding doors beneath a segmental pediment, and there is a dogleg staircase with a moulded handrail. The property includes an attached front area wall with ramped coping. The design reflects the early form of houses built in Queen Square around 1710.
