Details

BRISTOL ROAD 1. 5104 (west side) Edgbaston B5 Nos 225 and 227 SP 0684 SW 52/5 II GV 2. Built as 2 separate villas, now linked as one property. No 225 is a circa 1860 symmetrical villa with ornate Italianate details. Stucco faced with 3 bay main block and set back one bay wings. Ionic pilasters as quoins to first floor and flanking central window. Deep entablature with modillion cornice and parapet, largely concealing low gable end slate roof. Two storey canted bays flank centre, probably circa 1880-90 addition. The wings and centre of first floor have paired round headed sashes in architrave surrounds with cornice moulding over, that to centre surmounted by scrolled pediment; pediment-blocking course motif to wings. Central coupled pilaster doorway with pediment rising from ground floor cornice of flanking canted bays. No 227 is a circa 1840-50 three storey red brick villa with stucco dressings. The second floor is probably a slightly later addition of the mid 1850s. Deep stucco plinth supports the elevated ground floor which is articulated by chanelled, vermiculated stucco piers, the ground floor cornice and blocking course breaking forward boldly over them. The moulded string over the first floor window heads acts as bed mould to stepped brackets carrying prominent moulded cornice and blocking course. Boxed eaves cornice to second floor. Hipped slate roof with flanking moulded cornice chimneys. All windows have revealed glazing bar sashes. The entrance cuts through plinth rising directly to reduced window of right hand bay; cornice on consoles with blocking course. The entrance has presumably been reset from side.
