Numbers 3 To 9 (Odd) And Attached Front Garden Walls And Piers

Numbers 3 to 9 (odd) Burlington Road, Redland, comprises a terrace of four houses built around 1860, possibly designed by Thomas Austin. They are constructed of limestone ashlar, with party wall stacks and a pantile roof. The houses are arranged with a double-depth plan, over two storeys, an attic, and a basement, and originally had a six-window front. The architectural style is Tudor Gothic. The terrace presents a unified appearance with four shouldered gables, the outer ones stepped forward, and includes two-storey porches set back at the ends. Number 3 has a matching extension built around 1870 behind its porch. The middle houses feature outer doorways, all with elliptical-arched heads, decorative labels with stops, overlights, and two-panel doors. The windows are predominantly 2/2-pane sashes, with elliptical arches. The ground floor windows are arranged in three-light bays with crenellated parapets; the first floor windows are in three-light arrangements; and the attic windows are two-light with gabled heads, labels, and swept tracery bars. The gables feature shallow zigzag arcading, weathered coping, and bases for finials. The interior of Number 3 includes a glazed hall screen with stained glass, a tiled hall, a central dogleg staircase with a wreathed rail and thin turned balusters, openwork cornices, and ceiling roses, alongside marble fireplaces. Attached to the front of the terrace are stone garden railings and piers with gabled caps. These are an unusual example of a terrace combining Neo-Classical planning with Tudor Gothic detailing.
