5A, Derby Street

5A Derby Street is an office or surgery, now a surgery, built around 1850 and altered since. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond with sandstone dressings and has a hipped felted roof. It features a rectangular plan in the Italianate style, characterized by disproportionately large features that match those of the adjacent No.7 Magistrates Courts on the right. The structure is a single storey with three symmetrical bays, showcasing emphatic rusticated quoins. The central doorway is square-headed and framed by a heavy stone doorcase with banded columns, an entablature, and a cornice. There are large round-headed windows with heavy keyed architraves; the left window is sashed with radiating glazing bars, while the other has been altered. The right-hand return includes two similar windows and an inserted doorway between them. There are additions to the rear. This building forms a group with No.5 to the left and No.7 Magistrates Court to the right, which adds to its group value.
