1 Windsor Esplanade

Nos. 1-19 Windsor Esplanade comprise a terrace of houses dating to the 19th century, built of snecked grey and brown local sandstone with bathstone dressings. The roofs are generally slate, with mainly red brick chimneys. Each house has three windows, two storeys in height, and round-headed attic dormers concealed behind a decorative, pierced bathstone parapet, part of which has been lost. The houses at each end of the terrace, and the central three, project slightly forward and feature pinnacled gables with bathstone copings, containing square-headed windows with hood moulds. The central house has a slightly narrower and lower shaped gable. A bathstone cornice sits below a band of red brick and red and black terracotta tiles. Window and door surrounds are in bathstone, featuring rectangular hood moulds. Horizontal bands of bathstone run at first-floor sill level. On the first floor, single windows are positioned above the doorways, while paired windows are above the ground-floor semi-hexagonal bay windows, which themselves have cornices and low parapets. The central house differs with three single windows to the first floor, and an additional window on the ground floor to the right of the bay. The windows have been largely replaced with modern glazing. The west-facing return is rendered with a broad, shaped gable, while the east-facing return is built of stone with a triangular gable, containing two blocked windows on each floor.
