Description
36 Alban Square is a simple classical terrace building dating from the 19th century. It features two-storey scribed render and roughcast frontages, with rusticated quoins and end pilaster strips. The building has a three-storey pyramidal hipped roof and a pavilion at No 37, with slate roofs, wide boarded eaves, and cement render chimney stacks.
The frontages have varying window arrangements: Nos 32 to 34 and 37 have two-window fronts, No 35 has a one-window front, and No 36 has a three-window front that is offset. The first floor typically features 12-pane sash windows, except for Nos 34 and 35. The ground floor of Nos 33 and 26 also has 12-pane sash windows, while No 37 has 9-pane sash windows on the second floor and tripartite sashes on the ground floor. The windows are adorned with voussoir lintels and lugged architraves.
Notable architectural features include a cross gable with ornamental bargeboards and a finial above a two-storey bay at No 34, and a splayed bay at No 35. There are modern shop fronts present, and arched entrances with architraves can be found at Nos 33 and 34. Additionally, Nos 33, 34, and 36 have six-panel doors with fanlights, and No 36 features a classical doorcase.
The building also has a three-window roughcast front facing Bridge Street, which maintains a similar window treatment.
