Description

26 and 27 Great George Street are a pair of mid to late 19th-century houses. They feature Flemish bond brickwork and a slate roof, standing three storeys high with two windows each. All windows are glazing-bar sashes set in painted brick with alternating quoins. The windows have stone keys and stone sills, with a sill band at the first floor. The first- and second-floor windows have 12 panes and straight flush lintels, while the ground floor windows are wider 16-pane designs with cambered lintels and triple keystones.

To the left of No. 26 is a wide six-panel door with a moulded transom under a plain light with a basket-handle head, set in alternating V-joint jambs. No. 27 has a smaller version of this door with painted jambs. The buildings have a painted stone plinth and quoins only on the left end, with the upper two floors painted. There is a thin flush band above the second-floor windows, a moulded stone cornice, a blocking course, and a coped parapet. The roof and stacks are not visible. The interior has not been inspected. This pair is a handsome example of mid-Victorian architecture and remains unaltered on the street front.
