Description
Albert House and No 10A is a three-bay, three-storey house dating from the 19th century, featuring a slate gabled roof and a small red brick chimney on the left side. The building has a broad pebbledashed facade with regular horned sash windows that include marginal glazing, similar to those on No 8. The upper floors have stucco cornices supported by corbels.
On the ground floor, there are canted bay windows with similar glazing on both the left and right sides, which have cornices that extend to a balcony above. This balcony is adorned with cast-iron low railings featuring Gothic fleur-de-lys finials under the top rail and turned standards with matching finials, similar to the rails over the porch of No 8. The central entrance features a moulded four-panel door set in a panelled recess, topped by a plain rectangular overlight. This door is framed by broad fluted pilasters and long console brackets.
An ornate pierced ironwork arch in front of the door supports the balcony's centre and is complemented by openwork piers decorated with honeysuckle ornament, pierced spandrels, and a pierced top rail, resembling the porch of No 8. To the left of the left bay, there is an added timber glazed porch from the early to mid-20th century, which includes a margin-glazed window and a modern door with a margin-glazed square overlight, serving as the entrance to No 10A (a flat).
In front of the house, there is a low wall made of rubble stone with chamfered coping and two gateways. The walls are topped with low railings that feature cast-iron floral finials and turned standards, while the gates are similar and include dog-bars. The railings match those of No 8. The interior of the property is not available for inspection, but shutters can be seen in some of the windows.
