Description

Nos. 24 and 26 Queen Street Chambers is a four-storey building designed in the Venetian Gothic style. The facade is made of stucco and Portland stone, mimicking Istrian stone, and features seven bays. At the top, there is a Gothic cornice with pierced pinnacles at either end, connected by ornamental battlements. The building includes dormers, with the third floor showcasing seven single windows that have rounded heads and rope-moulded architraves, similar to those on the left return.

On the second floor, the windows are ogee-headed and arranged in a pattern of 2:1:2:3:2:1:2, with a floreated stringcourse at the impost level. This floor also has projecting balconies for the single windows, while the others feature pierced screens. The first floor is distinguished by windows with trefoil heads and Ruskinian floreated capped columns, arranged in a Venetian manner with 2:1:2 lights on either side of a restored splayed oriel window in the same style. The ground floor contains shopfronts.
