Description
Cleveland is a large house, later converted into apartments, built in 1877. Designed by Foster and Wood of Bristol, it is constructed of snecked rubblestone with roughcast and mock timber-framing featuring lozenge-shaped panels. It has freestone dressings and a crested decorative plain tile roof with four stone and brick ridge stacks. The house is asymmetrical and has an approximate nine-window range.
The design is in the Domestic Revival style, with two storeys and attics. Five projecting two-storey bays are present, each with decorative bargeboards. The bay over the entrance, situated to the right of the centre, has a hipped roof and a timber arcade leading to a stone Tudor arch over double panelled doors. The first-floor of this bay has brick nogging to the timber-framing. Balconies are located under the eaves, linking the bays at the first-floor level. Finials are present at the apex of each of the five gables; four are made of wood, finishing the decorative bargeboarding, and two are of red tile. An additional gable with a finial is visible on the east facade.
Inside, the entrance hall features coloured leaded lights in the stair window and an open-well staircase.
