Albert Villa Rupert Villa

Albert Villa and Rupert Villa are a pair of attached houses built around 1850, likely designed by William Armstrong. They are constructed from limestone ashlar with ashlar end stacks, featuring a raised party wall. The roofs are hip roofs, with the left side covered in pantiles and the right side in slate. The houses are designed in the Italianate style and each has two storeys with a symmetrical two-window range. The entrance blocks are located at each end: No. 8 has a six-panel door, while No. 7 features a round-arched doorway with a plate-glass overlight and a 20th-century porch. The windows are plain and taller on the ground floor; No. 8 has six-over-six pane sash windows with mid-19th century round-cornered wrought-iron balconies, whereas No. 7 has plate-glass sashes. The interior has not been inspected. These houses are depicted on Ashmead's Map of Bristol from the 1855 edition, while the matching three houses at the right-hand end of the north side of Fremantle Square are not shown.
