Description

11 Laura Place is a late Georgian building featuring two stories, an attic, and a basement, with a seven-window front made of scribed cement render. The hipped slate roof has wide bracket eaves and rubble chimney stacks. The building has slate-hung dormers, with two dormers at No. 11 having modern windows, while the dormer at No. 12 features twin horned sash windows. The ground floor has taller small pane sash windows, and there is a hooded Doric doorcase at No. 12, which is offset to the right and includes fluted columns, panelled double doors, and an ogee traceried fanlight.

The left side of the building has cement render, and No. 11 has a similar doorcase with fluted pilasters. The rear is made of rubble and includes dormers and sash windows with glazing bars, along with a modern extension to No. 12.

Inside, the interiors retain contemporary details, particularly in No. 12, which was formerly the residential part of the house. The entrance hall features a bracket and paterae cornice, and a panelled soffit arch leads to an openwell staircase with a tall landing window. There are panelled shutters and doors, barley twist columns, and reeded pilasters at the fireplaces, some of which have Gothick traceried firebacks. No. 11 has fluted newel balusters.
