Description
33, 35 and 37 Middleton Gardens is a row of three shops built in 1908 by E. Wood and J. H. Sellers. The buildings are constructed of brick with glazed tile decoration and feature a reinforced concrete flat roof. Each shop has a replaced shop front, and the brickwork of No. 33 has been painted. On the first floor, there are five-light leaded timber mullion windows, each flanked by tiled pilasters that frame distinctive tiled panels above and below the windows. These panels incorporate green chevron patterns and rise above the parapet, which is finished with a dentil-type motif. The design is notable for its unique use of tiled panels and the early adoption of a reinforced concrete flat roof. Design drawings are illustrated in the Manchester City Art Gallery Exhibition Catalogue, Partnership in Style, 1975.
