7 Windsor Esplanade

Nos. 1-19 Windsor Esplanade form a terrace of 19th-century houses. The houses are built of snecked grey and brown local sandstone with bathstone dressings, and have generally slate roofs with mainly red brick chimneys. Each house has three windows and two storeys, with round-headed attic dormers concealed behind a decorative, pierced bathstone parapet, of which some detailing has been lost. The two houses at each end, and the central three, project slightly and feature pinnacled shaped gables with bathstone copings; square-headed windows with hoodmoulds are set within these gables. The central house has a slightly narrower and lower shaped gable. A bathstone cornice runs along the elevation, below a band of red brick and red and black terracotta tiles. Window and door surrounds are in bathstone, with rectangular hood moulds. Further bathstone band courses are present 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 have cornices and low parapets. The central house differs in its window arrangement, having three single windows to the first floor and an additional window on the ground floor to the right of the bay. The original window glazing has been replaced. The west return is rendered and features a broad shaped gable. The east return is in stone, with a triangular gable and two blocked windows on each floor.
