Description
81 and 82 Marshfield Road are a pair of houses built in the late 19th century. They are constructed from squared limestone rubble with freestone dressings and feature a slate roof with wide eaves and a brick ridge stack on the party wall. The houses are designed in a picturesque eclectic style with double-depth plans and rear two-storey outshuts.
The exterior consists of two storeys and attics, with each house having a two-window range. They have full-width gables adorned with loop-pattern fretted bargeboards. The upper floors feature 2/2-pane sash windows with eared and shouldered surrounds and bracketed sills, along with a narrow lintel band at the first floor. The ground floor has canted bays at the center of the pair, which are topped with pierced guilloche parapets and contain plate-glass sashes. The outer sections have prostyle Tuscan porches with similar parapets above four-panelled doors that are glazed at the top, along with overlights featuring margin panes. The returns of the porches are made of English-bond brick. The interior has not been inspected.
