Description
Trafalgar House is a house located on the west side of High Street in Tewkesbury, built around the 1860s. It features Flemish bond brickwork and a slate roof with a brick chimney. The building has two storeys, an attic, and a basement, with a two-windowed facade. Small gabled dormers with four-pane lights sit above cambered heads. The ground and first floors have four-pane sash windows set in moulded stone architraves with segmental heads, and there is a cill-band on the first floor supported by two brackets under each cill. A basement grille is set into the pavement. To the left, there is an arched opening with alternating quoins to its right, above which are V-joint voussoirs leading to a plain fanlight and a three-panel moulded 19th-century door, accessed by two sandstone steps. On the right side, there is a footscraper set in a small plinth. The building also features alternating rusticated quoins, a wood modillion cornice, and a brick stack on the right. The interior has not been inspected. This house represents a modest rebuild or late insertion that shows sensitivity and good design in an urban context, avoiding pastiche.
