Description
5 Queen Street is a late 18th-century townhouse of three storeys, with an attic and basement. The building is constructed of red brick, with horizontal bands marking the floor levels. It has a plain wooden frieze and a gable-ended slate roof. The front facade features a single wide dormer with paired sash windows, and a three-window arrangement. The ground floor entrance is located in the right-hand bay. The upper floors contain recessed sash windows without glazing bars, all with flat-gauged arches. The front door consists of six fielded panels, topped with a semi-circular fanlight, and is set within a painted wooden doorcase featuring engaged Corinthian columns, a broken entablature ornamented with vase reliefs, and an open pediment. A flight of three stone steps with 19th-century cast iron arrowhead railings leads to the entrance. The basement windows retain their original glazing bars.
Inside, a late 18th-century staircase is a prominent feature, with an open string, shaped brackets, turned balusters, and a swept, continuous moulded handrail.
The building is part of a group with Nos. 5 to 13 Queen Street.
