Clic House

Clic House is a pair of attached houses, now functioning as a single nursing home, built around 1850, likely by William Armstrong. The structure features limestone ashlar with stucco sides, a rendered ridge stack, a raised party wall, and a concrete tile hip roof. It is designed in the Italianate style and consists of three storeys with a two-window range. The symmetrical pair is separated by a vertical recess at the party wall, showcasing a rusticated ground floor with a plat band and entrances on the sides. The late 20th-century doorways have two-leaf panelled doors. The ground-floor windows are recessed, while the first-floor windows are framed with architraves and have consoles supporting canopies and openwork balconies on three brackets, both fitted with 6/6-pane horned sashes. The second-storey windows are supported by corbels at the sills and feature 3/3-pane sashes. The interior was converted around 1985, introducing new entrances and internal openings, cornices with rose soffits, dogleg lateral stairs with turned balusters and newels, as well as three-panel shutters and panelled soffits. Clic House is depicted on Ashmead's 1855 Map of Bristol.
