Description
No. 132 Queen Street is an 18th-century building that stands three storeys tall and is finished in stucco. The structure features a plinth and a band at the first-floor level, with two narrow pilasters at each end extending from the band to the eaves, where a frieze and cornice are located. The doorway has a moulded architrave and a cornice supported by consoles. On the ground floor, there are two windows that have had their glazing bars removed. The first floor contains three 12-paned sash windows, with the middle window having a moulded architrave and cornice on consoles. The top floor features three 9-paned sash windows. To the left of the building, there is a segmental arched carriage entrance with open arcading above it, and further left, there are three blind round-arched windows with keystones set in a curtain wall leading to a stable court. Nos. 125A to 133 Queen Street form a group.
