Title
Houses in Queen Square
Description
A view of four-storey eighteenth-century Georgian houses with basements at 41-43 Queen Square, Holborn. The buildings contain typical Georgian features such as tall, small-paned sash windows, iron railings bordering the houses and panelled front doors with ornate fanlights above them. Other features include dormer windows, drain pipes, chimney stacks with chimney pots, scroll shaped pediments surmounting the door frames, steps flanked by iron railings rising to the front entrances and cornices with dentils bordering the tiled roofs. Pavement slabs and cobblestones can be seen in front of the houses. The left hand side of the photograph shows the Georgian houses in the neighbouring Devonshire Street. These include the Italian Hospital, which was established in number 41 in 1884 by Giovanni Battista Ortelli. The houses no longer exist and were replaced by a newer Italian Hospital building in c1898.
