GV II

House. Dated 1869. By Foster and Wood. Uncoursed limestone
ashlar, rubble rear, external end stacks and a pantile hipped
roof. Double-depth plan. Early Georgian Revival style. 2
storeys; 4-window range. A symmetrical front has rusticated
quoins, a ground-floor cornice and moulded timber eaves; the
doorway has a moulding at sill height, plate-glass overlight
and half-glazed double doors. Windows have architraves,
ground-floor pulvinated friezes and pediments strung along the
cornice, segmental to the ends, semicircular over the door,
and triangular between; casement cross windows with horizontal
glazing bars. Over the doorway is a moulded panel with a small
pediment, dated 1869 beneath 2 fish and an anchor. Stacks on
each end have quoins and a pair of diagonally-set square
stacks with cornices. INTERIOR: entrance hall to a central
stair flight with turned balusters. Built as the warden's
house to Colston's Almshouses (qv), though in the manner of
Bengough's Almshouses (qv), and with the pediments and stacks
in imitation of their style. An early example of Georgian
Revival, cleary designed to compliment earlier buildings.
