Description
1 and 2 Station Houses are two adjoining houses that were formerly part of the Berkeley Road Station complex and likely served as the station master's house. They were built in the mid-19th century and are constructed of brick with stone dressings. The slate roof features a parapet and stone-coped verges, with a rear brick lateral stack and a brick stack on the right, which was probably originally at the end but now abuts an extension in a similar style. The buildings are designed in the Tudor-Gothic style.
The main range consists of two storeys with an attic in the left gable end, while the smaller range to the right is also two storeys but has a lower rear section. The façade has three bays, with a two-light stone mullion and transom window featuring alternating flush quoins, stone lintels, and sills on the first floor. The central window is higher and has pointed arch lights with a square hoodmould. On the ground floor, there is a three-light similar mullion and transom window flanking a central projecting porch, which has a steep coped gable, a slightly dropped keystone in a depressed four-centred archway, and an original tongued and grooved door. The right range has one two-light window on the first floor and a three-light window on the ground floor. The gable ends display decorative stonework below the fascia, creating the appearance of crow-stepped brick gables within the stonework.
This is a handsome building for its period, complete and virtually unaltered, and it stands as the only remaining evidence of former railway activity. It may date from the opening of the Bristol-Gloucester Railway in 1844 and could be designed by I K Brunel.
