Charlton House, Havelock House, Oxford House And Railings

A terrace of three houses, numbered 41, 43, and 45 Carlton House, now used as houses and offices, dating to circa 1820-1850. The buildings are constructed of brick with stucco facades, covered by slate roofs, with a mansard roof to numbers 43 and 45. Brick and stucco party-wall stacks are present, along with iron railings to numbers 43 and 45. The terrace is two storeys high with basements and attic rooms within the mansards, presenting a facade with nine first-floor windows (three per house). Stucco detailing includes rustication around the entrances to numbers 43 and 45, and a first-floor platband surmounted by fluted Corinthian pilasters above the left and centre entrance bays. A continuous frieze, cornice, and blocking course are evident, though portions are missing to the right. Breakforwards occur at the third, sixth, and ninth window bays. The original windows are largely 6/6 sashes, except in the basements where 8/8 sashes remain. A continuous first-floor sill band is present on the left and centre, with sills throughout. Three entrances are present, two within the breakforwards and one off-centre to the right, all with flights of steps (roll-edged where original) leading to six-panel doors, some part-glazed. Numbers 43 and 45 retain fanlights with Gothic glazing, while number 41 has an overlight. Roof dormers concealed by the blocking course feature casement windows. The right return elevation has five windows on the first floor. A former Ionic porch, featuring a pulvinated frieze and modillion cornice, has been replaced with windows, with a blind window and 6/6 sash above the porch. The interior was not inspected. Attached area railings feature spearhead railings with bars and dog-bars to the sides of the steps at numbers 43 and 45, including gates to the basements between piers with anthemion cresting. Railings continue to the area of number 45, while number 41 has railings featuring a lattice motif.
