Eastholme

Eastholme is a house dating from the 1870s, likely designed by J Middleton. It is constructed of red brick with purple brick banding and ashlar dressings, featuring a decorative tile roof and tall brick end and ridge stacks with cornices. The house is two storeys and has three gabled bays, with the left-hand bay projecting forward. The central entrance has a pointed plank door with a double-chamfered head and an arch of alternately-coloured voussoirs. To the left of the entrance is a three-light window, and to the right a four-light mullion-and-transom window featuring cusped upper lights, ashlar surrounds, and voussoirs above. The first floor windows consist of a three-light, a one-light, and a two-light mullion window, all with cusped heads. Decorative bargeboards and finials adorn the gables. The left-hand (garden) front has a rectangular bay and similar windows. The interior is reputed to retain original plasterwork and joinery. Eastholme is a notable Victorian design within a predominantly Regency square, situated around an open, lawned area. It contributes significantly to a group of fine buildings in Wellington Square, marking the north-east corner of the square.
