Description

3-9 (Odd Nos) Victoria Place is a modernist housing development designed by Basil Spence and Partners between 1948 and 1951. It features a three-storey rectangular plan with a two-storey angled block on the left and is part of a municipal housing project near the harbour. The building is constructed of cavity brick, mainly covered in painted harl, with red sandstone random rubble at the ground floor on the east and north elevations, and has forestairs and a base course on the west elevation. The design includes a concrete walkway, treads, balconies, and projecting narrow cills, along with iron balustrades. Some windows are raised and set within architraves.

On the east elevation, the ground floor is flatted and features three bays on the right that project to create an exterior entrance walkway at the first floor for the maisonettes, along with a dog-leg exterior stair on the left leading to a vennel beneath the top landing. There is a single entrance door with an original glazed sidelight to the left at the first floor (No. 5), and single entrance doors with half-glazed sidelights to the right of centre at both the ground and first floors, as well as a single entrance door at the centre of the angled block. A balcony is located to the right of centre at the second floor.

The west elevation has irregular fenestration, with a random rubble section separating some of the windows. The building has a variety of replacement glazing and doors, pantiled roofs, and harled and coped ridge and end stacks with cylindrical clay cans. The interiors, partially seen in 2010, retain the simple plan forms of the flats and maisonettes.
