Royal Terrace - Physical Description 1
Heritage Victoria
The terrace is built of fine ashlar bluestone with sandstone dressings and stuccoed ground floor walls. The end residences of the terrace project slightly forward to Nicholson Street, and a continuous sandstone parapet, with centrally placed name plate, hides the roof. Urns and rosettes were added to the parapet in c1880. The continuous verandah on timber columns has a concave roof over a floor of slate and white marble tiles laid in diamond pattern. In most cases the original two storey and single storey rear wings survive. The original bluestone stables survive at the rear of six of the residences, and the party wall between stables survives at the other four. The stables are not located along the rear boundary as was typical, rather they are set back from it.
The pavement to Nicholson Street is probably contemporary to the terrace. Remnant original red sandstone paving is possibly from Arbroath, Scotland and the grey sandstone from Caithness. The cast iron fence along the front property boundaries was also probably imported.Royal Terrace - Integrity
