Description

No. 113 Foregate Street is a shop and accommodation building constructed in 1890 by John Douglas for the first Duke of Westminster. It is part of a cohesive design that includes No. 115 Parker's Buildings and No. 117 Foregate Street. The building features stone-dressed red Ruabon brick and has a red clay tile roof. It stands three storeys tall with three windows.

The shopfront includes recessed double doors flanked by colonnette-mullioned shop windows, along with panelled side-pilasters. A wrought-iron sign bracket, dated 1890, is also present. On the first floor, there are three sash windows with six panes above two panes, set in ornate sandstone cases. The second floor has similar sash windows, but with twelve panes. The shaped gable is adorned with a stone band, blue-brick diaper patterns, stone volutes, coping, and five finials.

The right side of the building forms the west face of the forecourt to Parker's Buildings, featuring a high, flush sandstone plinth and a projecting lateral chimney with a shaped stack. There are various stone-dressed windows and a two-storey rear wing. The interior has not been inspected. Nearby, Bath Street, Grosvenor Park Road, and Union Street contain other buildings designed by Douglas.
