35 and 37, Canynge Road

A pair of attached houses located on Canynge Road, Clifton, Bristol, dating back to around 1821, with extensions made around 1840. They were likely designed by James Foster. The houses are built of stucco with limestone dressings, a brick party wall with stacks, and have a slate hipped mansard roof. They have a double-depth plan and are in a late Georgian style.

The front of the houses is symmetrical, featuring clasping pilasters that rise to a parapet, with the parapet ramped at the corners and a round-topped strip with three wide reeds along the party wall. The entrances are located on the returns. Number 35 has a single-storey porch with attached columns and a two-leaf, half-glazed door. Number 37 has a mid-19th century ashlar two-storey extension with a flush, open porch featuring pilasters, panelling to the right, a ground-floor entablature and cornice, and a parapet, alongside a blind first-floor window. The doorway to number 37 has an architrave and a two-leaf door with faceted panels. The windows are tripartite on the ground and first floors. Wrought-iron balconies are present to the ground floor, with wider, tented balconies to the first floor, and basket balconies to the second. Number 37 has 6/6-pane sashes, number 35 has plate-glass sashes, and both have 8/8-pane sashes on the second floor.

The porch to number 37 extends around the right return, forming a five-window range, with the middle three windows arranged in a half bow. The right-hand window is also tripartite, with ground-floor panelled jambs to an entablature, first-floor architraves, and a parapet. Decorative cast-iron ornate railings adorn the windows and the side of the porch.

The interior has not been inspected. The design matches that of numbers 3-15 Richmond Hill, also designed by Foster in 1821.
