Queen Anne House and Front Wall to Garden

Queen Anne House is a detached house, possibly built in 1702, with a datestone re-set in the garden wall. It was refenestrated and refurbished around 1840. The house is constructed of brick in Flemish bond with a dressed sandstone plinth and features a gabled-end slate roof. It has a central staircase plan with a main range and a rear service wing, which originally included a lateral newel stair that has since been dismantled. The house is single depth, with principal rooms on either side of the central staircase hall.

The exterior has brick end stacks, with the left stack featuring two paired set-offs and the right stack largely renewed. The house is two storeys high and has a symmetrical front with a five-window range. There are three full dormers with six-pane sash windows, a moulded gutter box, and twelve-pane horned sash windows under segmental brick arches on the first floor. A verandah with a moulded cornice is supported by four Tuscan columns and runs across two bow windows with twelve-pane hornless sashes flanking the central entrance, which features pilasters, panelled reveals, and a soffit. The plinth is chamfered only on the front range.

The right-hand elevation has the only surviving window from around 1702, which is a two-light casement with a stanchion and fastener plate, while the rest of this elevation has three 20th-century casements. The rear of the house includes a twelve-pane hornless sash window and another on the inner face of the wing, along with two additional 20th-century casement windows.

Inside the rear wing on the ground floor, there are two cross ceiling beams, both chamfered; one features composite ovolo and cavetto moulding, while the other has step stops at one end, likely from the 17th century but reused. The interior also includes circa 1840 joinery, such as internal panelled shutters in the front bays and an open well staircase. The roof has softwood A-frame trusses, with principals morticed and pegged at the apex and halved collars in both the main range and the rear wing.

The brick front garden wall along the Strand is contemporary with the house, featuring a sandstone plinth and evidence of a central entrance that is now blocked up. This wall is included in the listing.
