1-11, Clarence Street

A terrace of six houses at 1-11 Clarence Street, Cheltenham, built around 1827-8. The terrace has been altered later, including the addition of shop fronts in the 1980s. It is constructed of stucco over brick, with a concealed roof and slate covering to number 9, and tall brick party-wall stacks. Cast and wrought-iron balconies, likely cast by the ironworking firm RE and C Marshall, are also notable features.

The three-storey terrace, with an attic to number 7, has 15 first-floor windows. First and second floors feature 6/6 sash windows; the first-floor sashes in number 1 have tooled architraves, a frieze, and a cornice. All windows are in plain reveals with sills to the second floor. Number 11 breaks forward in the design. Dormer windows with casement windows are present in the attic of number 7. The interior has not been inspected.

The first-floor balconies of numbers 1-7 extend continuously and feature scroll and cross motifs inspired by designs of LN Cottingham. Clarence Street was named in 1827, coinciding with a carriage procession along the newly created street by Adelaide, Duchess of Clarence, who later became Queen Adelaide. The terrace forms a group with number 200, High Street, which acts as a termination to the design.
