Description
Lansdowne House and Georgic House is a pair of houses built in the mid-18th century. They are constructed from ashlar gritstone and feature projecting quoins, plain coped gables, and moulded kneelers. The houses have end and intermediate ashlar ridge stacks, with the western stack partially rebuilt in brick. The roof is made of stone and Welsh slate.
The buildings are three storeys high and consist of three bays, with a slightly advanced central bay marked by pilasters. This central bay is made of massive ashlar and has a moulded eaves cornice. The ground and first floors feature Venetian windows, with the first-floor window having a depressed pointed arch at the center, set back within a shallow recess. The flanking bays have glazing bar sashes with projecting surrounds and keyblocks, and the ground floor windows have semi-circular heads and keyblocks. All first-floor windows are adorned with balustrades below the cills, and plain band courses connect the cills of the ground and first-floor windows to the balustrades. There are two doorways, each with Doric columns, enriched entablatures, and six-panelled doors.
