Description

37 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 terrace has two-window fronts for Nos 32, 34, and 37, a one-window front for No 35, and three windows (offset) for No 36. Most first-floor windows are 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 features 9-pane sash windows on the second floor and tripartite sashes on the ground floor. Voussoir lintels and lugged architraves are present throughout.

Notable architectural details 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 on the ground floor. Arched entrances with architraves can be found at Nos 33 and 34, along with six-panel doors and fanlights at Nos 33, 34, and 36. No 36 also features a classical doorcase.

The building has a three-window roughcast front facing Bridge Street, with similar window treatments.
