Number 3 Street

Number 3 Street is a shop with a dining room that is part of the City Club No.1 Northgate Street, built between 1898 and 1899 by architect H.W. Beswick for Charles Brown. The building features timber framing and pebbledash with a slate roof and a gable facing the street, designed in a Free Vernacular Revival style. It has two storeys that are expressed as three, with an arcade of one bay to the street supported by posts in a Jacobean Classical style. The modern shopfront is not of particular interest.

The front of the dining room is designed as two storeys, each jettied. The upper storey features a full-width 9-light mullioned and transomed window above a pebbledashed band, showcasing leaded glazing and some coloured glass. The five central lights form an oriel, with pargeted panels above the sidelights dated 1899. The window frame protrudes from the wall, flanked by tapered pilasters. The uppermost section has a carved band beneath a gable, which includes a 3-light leaded window, ornate shaped bargeboards supported by paired consoles, and a finial. The rear of the building is not visible.

Inside, there is no visible evidence of an undercroft, and the first storey lacks any exposed features of interest. The dining room is described under No.1 Northgate Street, which is the City Club and serves as an extension to this building.
