Description
17 Queens Terrace is a uniform Victorian terrace consisting of four pairs of houses and one additional house. Built in the 19th century, it features three stories and a basement, with two-window rubble fronts accented by brick dressings and some Gothic details, possibly influenced by architect J P Seddon. The roofs are slate, and there are stock brick chimney stacks. The terrace has an overall moulded brick cornice and a band course.
No. 5 has an attic dormer, while the other houses have skylights. The buildings retain horned sash windows, and each house includes a two-storey and basement advanced and splayed bay with colonnettes, a blind Gothic traceried parapet, and aprons. The third floor features alternating tripartite and twinned segmental headed windows, with similar segmental headed windows on the first floor above raised and paired porches that have steep pitched fishscale slate roofs, Gothic timberwork, and board and panelled reveals.
Houses Nos. 7 to 19 retain half-glazed Gothic doors and quatrefoil traceried fanlights, while all houses have iron railings at the front and steps leading up to the porches. The railings continue in front of No. 21.
