ISLINGTON

TQ3184SE ALWYNE ROAD 635-1/53/9 (North West side) Nos.1 AND 2

GV II

Pair of semi-detached houses. 1848. Developed, and probably designed, by James Wagstaffe. Grey brick set in Flemish bond, stucco, roof of slate. Three storeys over basement, the principal front of each house two bays wide with a lower porch wing set back at the side. Basement stuccoed, with banded rustication. All windows flat-arched with stucco architraves and reproduction sashes with margin lights, the ground floor windows having shouldered architraves and bracketed sills, window-guards on no 1; chamfered stucco quoins to ground floor as far up as a broad band of brick running over lintels and surmounted by a stucco cornice; bracketed eaves cornice. An attic window to the inner bay of each house, forming a pair flanked by pilaster strips with a blank bay between and covered by a stucco cornice and blocking course which breaks forward over the strips. Steps up to porch, the entrance flat-arched in a plain stucco architrave; panelled door and overlight. The porches to nos 1 and 2 are two storeys high with stucco cornice, the upper window of no 2 alone having an architrave. The main roofs hipped with stacks on party walls.
