Royal Terrace

No. 81 Royal Terrace is a terrace house located in Weymouth, built in 1816. It features Flemish bond brickwork and a slate roof. The house has a one-room width and a double-depth plan, with a double roof over a central valley. There is a side entry that leads to a rear dogleg staircase and a low service range. The building stands three storeys tall, with an attic and basement, which becomes a full storey at the back due to the sloping ground.

At the front, there are two small flat-roofed dormers with two-light casements above plain sash windows, with the first-floor windows taken down to floor level. The ground floor has a 20th-century shop front that conceals the basement, featuring an arched doorway to the left. A plain band runs along the first floor, topped by a moulded cornice, a blocking course, and a parapet, with two chimney stacks to the right. The rear of the house has a large 20th-century brick flat-roofed extension.

Royal Terrace originally consisted of 18 houses built in two phases, with this house being part of the first phase. A straight joint in the face brickwork between this house and the adjacent No. 80 indicates that the buildings were not continuous even in this phase. The interior has not been inspected.
