Description
Lamorna House is a pair of houses built around 1830, located on Great George Street in Weymouth. The houses are rendered, with No. 24 featuring a slate roof and No. 23 having an asbestos-cement slate mansard roof. They are two stories tall with an attic, each having one window.
No. 23 has a late 19th-century gabled dormer with six panes above a canted oriel window that has a panelled skirt, along with a four-pane sash window in a flush box. To the left of the oriel is a four-panel door with a Y-tracery fanlight. The gabled return of this house is plain.
No. 24 has a similar dormer above a bow oriel window with eight, twelve, and eight panes, and a sixteen-pane sash window in a flush box. To the left of the oriel is a six-panel door beneath a plain fanlight. Both houses feature a small plinth and a cornice with paired brick dentils beneath a plain band, topped with a blocking course and parapet. There are central and right gable ridge stacks. The interior has not been inspected.
