Description

Nos. 614-620 on Holderness Road are a group of four shops and flats built in 1912, with mid and late 20th-century alterations. Designed by Gelder & Kitchen of Hull, the building features yellow brick with ashlar front and dressings, and the roof is not visible. It is in the Baroque Revival style and stands three storeys tall with a total of eight windows arranged in a 4x2 pattern.

The building occupies a corner site with a splayed corner topped by a heavily buttressed ashlar dome with a finial. The main front showcases a giant order of paired Ionic columns that support an entablature with a modillion cornice. Above this, there is a balustrade with pedestals supported by volutes. The front includes four tripartite glazing-bar sash windows, with the central window featuring a large double keystone, and above them are four transomed Diocletian windows.

The ground floor has four shop fronts that have undergone late 20th-century alterations, featuring a common fascia cornice with brackets. The angled corner on the right side has a glazing-bar sash window on the upper floors, with the first-floor window also having a double keystone. The right return of the building mirrors this design, with two partly reglazed sashes on the left and a Diocletian window above. To the right, there is a single sash window on each upper floor, and below are three small segment-headed windows. Adjacent to the right is a two-storey brick block with a five-window range.

Nos. 614-620 were originally built as a shop for William Jackson and Son, grocers and confectioners, who owned the largest chain of grocery stores in Hull and the East Riding.
