Description
93 Walter Road is a terrace of five houses built around 1865 in the Jacobethan style, featuring shaped gables. The buildings are three storeys high, constructed of stucco with a banded ground floor, and have slate or tiled roofs. Each house has two bays, with the right bay being broader and slightly advanced. This bay features a shaped gable with a pinnacle and urns at the shoulders, although the urns are missing at Nos 95 and 96. The second floor has a window with a moulded surround, the first floor also has a window with a moulded surround, and the ground floor includes a splayed bay.
The left bay is narrower and slightly recessed, with a gable that has a pinnacle (also lost at No 96). It features a second floor round-headed window with a moulded surround, a first floor window with a moulded surround, and a ground floor entrance doorway with a moulded doorcase and a shallow bracketed hood. Notably, No 43 St James’ Crescent has an extra bay window and is entered from the side, while No 96 has a window with a shallow architrave.
The return to the west (left) includes a gable with a pinnacle and urns at the shoulders, a second floor round-headed window with a moulded surround, two first floor windows with moulded surrounds, and a ground floor deep porch with a round-headed entrance doorway. There are round-headed windows on the sides of the porch, and a window to the right of the porch. To the left, there is one window on the first and ground floors, along with a lower block that has one window. A single-storey ground floor section is set forward, featuring a door to the left, followed by a tripartite sash window and a splayed bay window. The return to the right (west) has a narrow porch.
