House, inserted at end of earlier row. Dated 1880; probable
remodelling of earlier property. Painted brickwork, very wide
span slate gable roof.
EXTERIOR: 3 storeys, attic and basement, 1-window width. A
large gabled face dormer has a 3-light casement with transom,
brought forward slightly on brackets, and under a decorative
open-work tympanum, with dentilled barge-board and dropped
finial. At second floor is a broad arch with voussoirs of
alternating colour, containing a pair of glazed doors with
flanking lights, under a transom light and tympanum with
fish-tail tiles; to its right is a plain sash, and all to a
deep full-width balcony with turned wood balusters and newels
with ball finials, on a moulded base carried on curved
brackets. Centred under the balcony is a 3-storey square bay,
with 3 lights at first floor, and 2 arched lights to the
ground floor. The basement has paired 2-lights with transom,
at pavement level. The skirt of the bay has decorative glazed
tiles at ground and first floor.
Set back, right, on 7+1 stone steps with nosings, flanked by a
simple wrought-iron rail, is a flush 6-panel door under a
plain fanlight in a deep reveal; at the back of a deep lobby
is an inner glazed door with margin panes, under a deep square
transom light. To the left of the bay is a small gabled porch
with glazed door. Flanking the bay at first floor, on the main
wall, are square faience decorative panels, with 'FA'(?) and
'1880'. The eaves gutter is stopped to deep shaped brackets,
and there is a very deep but narrow brick stack with 12 pots
to the left gable. Right gable is partly slate-hung.
Rear has a plain slate roof swept down over a projecting stair
turret, with sashes on a splay; to its left are tall sashes
with unusual horizontal margin panes.
A projecting 3-storey gabled range is in English garden wall
brickwork, with a large gable stack, and corrugated
asbestos-cement roof. A late piece of infill in this street,
representing a continuation of the bay articulation
characteristic of Weymouth.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
Very characteristic of the stylistic experiments of the period
and unaltered externally; it makes a fitting termination to
the W side of East Street and is visible from the Esplanade.
