Description

Victoria Hall, at 12 and 14 Rollestone Street, dates from 1716 with subsequent alterations in the 18th century. It is a two-storey building with an attic and basement, constructed of brick with a raised plinth, a band at the first floor level, a moulded eaves cornice and an old tile roof. There are seven dormer windows, three remaining in their original form with hip roofs and tile-hung cheeks. The first floor has fourteen sash windows with intact glazing bars. The ground floor has ten windows and three doorways, while the basement has irregular windows, some of which are blocked.

Number 12 features a six-panelled door beneath the fifth window from the right, with an architrave surround and a flat, moulded hood supported by richly carved scroll brackets featuring a panelled soffit. Early 19th-century steps and a railing are present. The entrance to Victoria Hall is modern, with a doorcase of engaged Doric columns and a curved, denticulated pediment. Listing covers this entrance only.

Number 14 has a six-panelled door with a plain surround, a semi-circular hood with a plain frieze and bracketed cornice supported on engaged Doric columns with fluted necks. Narrow windows flank the door, and original stone steps lead to it, with a modern handrail.

The interior of Number 12 retains half of the staircase, featuring twisted balusters and a moulded handrail. A reused 17th-century male caryatid overmantel is visible above a fireplace. Number 14 contains a fielded panelled hall with elaborate capitals featuring drum heads on pilasters. A north-west ground floor room retains complete fielded panelling, while the north-east room has a good mantlepiece dating to the later 16th century. A staircase with turned balusters is also present. Note that the modern hall to the rear is separate from the front entrance to Victoria Hall.
