GV II

Pair of large terraced houses (now integrated), forming part
of row of 15 in interestingly varied but harmonious style. Mid
to later C19; altered. White-painted stucco, slate roofs,
stuccoed chimneys; cast-iron verandah. Italianate style.
Double-depth plan, No.11 single-fronted and No.12
double-fronted, with back extensions.
EXTERIOR: two-and-a-half storeys, 1:2+1:1 windows, a strongly
articulated 5-bay composition in which No.12 breaks forward
from No.11 and the left bay of each is a projected gabled wing
with open-pedimental gable; with a 1st-floor string course and
bracketed eaves and gables. The doorways (to the right and in
the centre respectively) have Tuscan pilaster architraves with
keyed entablatures, half-glazed doors with side-windows and
matching overlights. No.11 has a 4-pane sash at 1st floor and
a round-headed dormer to the attic, and its gabled wing to the
left has a 3-storey canted bay with 4-pane sashes and hipped
lead-clad roof extended as a canopy. No.12, except for coupled
4-pane sashes at 1st floor of the centre, has tripartite
windows to all floors: those at ground floor being a
rectangular bay to the left and a bow to the right, both with
Tuscan pilasters and moulded cornices with blocking courses;
those at 1st floor having cornices on consoles; a Venetian
window at 2nd floor of the wing and 2 dormers in Venetian
form. Tall corniced multiple-flue chimneys. Over the left bay
window of each house is scrolled pierced enrichment.
INTERIOR: not inspected.
Adjoins No.10 the right (qv) and is linked to No.13 to the
left (qv). Unlike all others in this block of 15 houses, this
pair lacks a verandah.
All the listed buildings in Beach Lawn, together with those in
Adelaide Terrace, Bath Street, Marine Crescent and Marine
Terrace, form a group in the Waterloo Conservation Area of
Crosby.
