Number 37 Street

Number 37 Street is a shop and accommodation building that was rebuilt in 1892 by Charles A Ewing for Messrs Dickson. It features a timber frame with plaster panels on the front and brick at the rear, topped with a grey slate roof. The building is four storeys high, plus attics, and has a symmetrical design. The modern shopfront consists of four basket-arched openings, two of which have glazed double doors and two with simple transomed windows.

On the second storey, there is a balcony situated between two canted six-light oriel windows, which are adorned with coved aprons, mullions, and two transoms, featuring patterned leaded glazing. Above the balcony and oriels is a hipped tiled roof, with the balcony showcasing high-level open framing with trefoil heads under the eaves. Small framing is present between and beside the oriels.

The third storey includes a five-bay central balcony supported by vase-moulded posts and flat ogee beams, with high-level open framing. This balcony has two three-light French windows and a cross-window on each side, also featuring patterned leaded glazing above the transom.

The fourth storey has a five-bay cove-jettied balcony, similar in expression to the third storey, with small-framed blank jettied wings on either side. The jettied front gable displays panelled herringbone strutting and a four-light mullioned and transomed leaded casement beneath a further jetty-beam, which is carved with a cartouche and foliage. The building also features carved bargeboards and an elaborate pinnacled finial, with a brick chimney on each gable end. The overall expression of the building is vigorous and very free. The interior of the lower two storeys has been recast, while the upper storeys have not been inspected.
