Description
25 Caledonian Place, including the boundary wall, is a terrace of houses built around 1859 by James Matthews. The terrace consists of 30 bays featuring 15 mirrored houses, each two stories high and two bays wide. The exterior is made of tooled coursed pink granite with finely finished sandstone dressings, some of which are painted. Notable architectural details include a base course, pilastered architraved doorways, panelled timber doors with letterbox fanlights, architraved window openings, an eaves cornice, and an eaves blocking course with stepped-up detail between pairs of houses.
On the north elevation, houses 17 and 19 are slightly advanced toward the center, featuring two pilastered doorways in the middle two bays, corniced with consoles, and windows above. The flanking bays on either side have three-light canted windows on both the ground and first floors. The center has a scrolled eaves blocking course. There are four pairs of mirrored cottages on the left and two pairs on the right of the center, with a pair of doorways and panelled timber doors with letterbox fanlights in the center, and windows above. The outer left bay of No. 1 has a canted window on the ground floor, while the outer right has a single cottage with a doorway to the right and a single window to the left, plus two windows on the first floor.
The west elevation is symmetrical, featuring two architraved blind windows in the center of the ground and first floors. The south elevation has irregularly placed windows and doorways, with some 20th-century additions and alterations. The east elevation is asymmetrical, with a window in the center of the ground floor flanked by a small window on the left, and a window in the center and left of the first floor.
The windows are timber sash and case, with 2-pane and 4-pane designs, though some have been replaced in houses 1, 3, 5, 7, 23, and 27. The roof is covered in grey and purple-grey slate with a lead ridge, featuring coped wallheads and ridge stacks with predominantly octagonal cans, along with cast-iron rainwater goods.
The interior was not seen during the last inspection in 1999. The boundary walls consist of low granite walls to the north, some topped with railings, and brick and rubble coped walls to the east, west, and south, which incorporate garages and outbuildings.
