Description
No. 1 Howard Place is a house that forms the end of a terrace and was built in the late 1860s. It features Flemish bond brickwork with light headers set on a chamfered plinth. The stone cornice on the return to Warwick Road is carried on from No. 115 Warwick Road, and there is a stone-bracketed metal gutter on the facade, with all dressings made of painted stone. The roof is made of Welsh slate and is hipped at the corner, with original red brick chimney stacks rising from it. The house has two storeys and four bays, with a two-bay return on Warwick Road.
The entrance is an off-centre panelled door with an overlight, set in a pilastered surround topped with a cornice. The ground floor has paired sash windows in brick reveals, with stone sills and lintels, and relieving brick arches above. On the upper floor, there are more sash windows in brick reveals with stone sills. A canted bay window is located on the Warwick Road side, positioned beneath sash windows framed by stone architraves. The interior has not been inspected. Notably, this property does not appear on the first edition Ordnance Survey map from 1865.
