Description
No. 10 Hammerton Street is a Co-operative Society drapery shop, built in 1905 as an extension to Nos 12 and 14, which are now integrated with its upper floors. Designed by Hitchon and Pritchard of Burnley, the building is constructed of sandstone ashlar with some polished granite details and features a two-span slated roof. It is designed in the Edwardian Baroque style and has a rectangular plan on a corner site.
The building stands three storeys high and has a symmetrical façade with a 1:2:1 window arrangement. The ground floor is accentuated by pilasters of polished grey granite at the center and ends, with triglyph entablatures and small pediments visible above a 20th-century fascia board. The upper floors are marked by channelled corner pilasters, and the center of the second floor is framed by an architrave of engaged Ionic columns topped with a pedimented entablature featuring a cartouche with raised lettering "BCS" (Burnley Co-operative Society). This section projects forward from a plain frieze, with a modillioned cornice and a plain parapet above.
The upper floor windows are adorned with moulded architraves; those on the first floor have open pediments with cartouches depicting fruit, while the second-floor windows feature keystones. All windows are sashed without glazing bars. The building is part of a group with Nos 12 and 14 to the right and Nos 9-29 opposite, collectively illustrating the development of the Co-operative Society in Burnley from 1862 to 1905.
