Number 1 Coburg Place (Terrace) And Number 108 St Mary Street

Number 1 Coburg Place and Number 108 St Mary Street is a house with a shop located at the end of a terrace, built around 1815. The building is rendered and has a slate roof. It is situated directly opposite the King's Statue, with narrow frontages to St Mary Street on the east and St Thomas Street (Coburg Place) on the west, featuring a bold rounded end that faces north along the Esplanade.

The exterior consists of three storeys and an attic, with a window arrangement of 1+3+1. There are four flat-roofed dormers, three of which have sash windows, while the fourth has been enlarged to accommodate a four-light casement. The eastern side features 12-pane sashes on the first and second floors, while the western side has a 9-pane sash above a casement with a transom. The broad bowed end includes central painted-in sashes in plain reveals, flanked by bowed oriels; the left oriel has an 8:12:8-pane sash above a plain sash, and the right oriel has a 6:9:6-pane sash above a plain sash.

The ground floor has been entirely replaced by a late 20th-century shop front, which is topped by a continuous modillion cornice. The bowed end features a mid band, and there is a thin main cornice at the head of the oriels, which is dentilled only on the right oriel. The building has a blocking-course and a coped parapet, while the rear wall includes a dormer and two large stacks.

The interior has not been inspected. This building contributes significantly to the urban landscape, working in harmony with Statue House and the King's Statue to enhance the south end of the promenade. It is noted that the earlier shop front has been lost, with a photograph from the 1950s showing it with small-pane glazing display windows.
