Description
1 Gloucester Place is a three-storey building with a basement, featuring cemented and roughcast fronts. Each house has two bays, with the right bay slightly projecting forward. The building is topped with slate roofs and has brick stacks located behind a parapet with moulded cappings. There is a cill band above the ground floor, and the basements are exposed rubble. The windows are sash style with small-frame glazing.
The left-hand side has arched and rusticated doorcases with traceried fanlights, although the fanlight for No 1 has been removed. The entrances have double two-panel doors that are accessed by flying platforms over railed areas.
At the time of inspection in spring 1986, the building was partly in poor condition.
