Description

Fowler's Buildings is an office building located on Victoria Street, dated 1866 and 1869, designed by J. A. Picton. It stands three storeys high with a basement and features nine bays. The rusticated basement has segmental-headed shop windows, while the upper part is made of stone, showcasing eight granite Tuscan columns on the ground floor, a frieze and cornice, and segmental-headed windows with decorative pediment-shaped mouldings. The top floor includes round-arched windows with sills supported by brackets. A heavy top cornice with brackets and dentils culminates in a central segmental pediment.

Adjacent to the office building is a warehouse that faces Temple Lane, which is part of the same architectural scheme but is simpler in design. This warehouse has a typical facade with five storeys and a basement, featuring fourteen bays and two stacks of loading doors. A notable internal feature of both sections is the cast iron arch-braced roof trusses.
