Description

Number 3 Bedford Place is a small early-mid 19th century townhouse on three floors plus basement. It has a curved bay window to the ground, first and second floors (that to the ground floor is smaller than that to the first and second floor), with a decorative cast iron balcony to the first floor. The original curved, small-paned design of windows was reinstated in 2000 (BH2000/03181/FP). The principal elevation is rendered, with rusticated bands to the ground floor. Black and white tiled steps with marble nosings lead to the front door. Number 2 Bedford Place (grade II listed) is located immediately next door, and is of a very similar design.
