GV II

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.
