Description
32 Queen Street is a late 18th century house, built around 1800, featuring three storeys and a basement made of red brick. It has a bracketed moulded wood cornice at the gable end and a slate roof. The front has three windows with the entrance located in the right-hand ground floor bay. The windows are recessed sashes with intact glazing bars, and those on the ground floor have painted stucco architrave surrounds and panelled aprons, topped with flat gauged brick arches. The door is made up of six fielded panels with a panelled reveal, topped by a semi-circular fanlight with radial glazing and cast lead ornamentation, all set deeply within a lobby that has an intersecting barrel vaulted ceiling and an arched opening to the front with a moulded architrave and imposts.
The lobby entrance is framed by painted stone Ionic engaged columns and an entablature featuring a fluted-reeded frieze and a moulded dentil cornice, which is broken back to the sides over a plain surround. The entrance is accessed by five stone steps with wrought iron railings that have turned baluster standards and small urns, returning to the area. The basement includes a three-light Yorkshire casement and a centrally located door with six flush panels.
Inside, the house retains several original features, including plaster panels and a dado with an oval panel as an overmantel in the ground floor front room, along with delicate Adam style fireplaces in this and other rooms. There are mahogany doors set in fine moulded doorcases. The hall archway leading to the stairwell is supported by fluted Corinthian pilasters with a leaf bracket cornice and a panelled soffit. The open string staircase features brackets with oval moulding and wreathed swags, thin square wood bannisters with delicate leaf moulded panels in between, and a continuous moulded swept handrail.
All the listed buildings on the east side form a group.
