19 AND 21, TANNER ROW (See details for further address information)

Nos. 19 and 21 Tanner Row, which also includes No. 22 George Hudson Street, are shops and offices built in 1899, with some alterations in the 20th century. They were constructed for the York Equitable Industrial Society and feature red brick in English bond with terracotta dressings. The shopfronts are tiled and have steel window frames, while the doorcases are made of marble or marble veneer. The building has stone-coped gables and pierced cresting on a slate roof, adorned with wrought-iron finials.

The Tanner Row front consists of three storeys and eleven bays, with the centre bay featuring an attic and a two-storey bay at the left end. The centre bay is emphasized with a steeply-pitched sprocketed roof, lucarnes, and a finial. The flanking bays are connected by a shaped gable topped with ball finials. The upper storeys are decorated with corbelled pilasters that have moulded capitals, supporting dentilled cornices on both floors. The ground floor shopfronts are located on either side of a glazed door in the centre bay, which is set within a semicircular arched doorcase made of radiating voussoirs. An open carriage arch is found at the left end. The windows in the centre bay consist of three lights, with the first floor featuring terracotta mullions beneath a carved terracotta panel, and the second floor beneath a semicircular arch with a grooved console keyblock and carved spandrels. The attic windows have colonnette mullions, while the other windows are cross windows with moulded lintels and sloped sills made of terracotta.

The George Hudson Street front has a three-storey centre block with seven bays, flanked by lower three-storey wings, which have three bays on the left and six bays on the right. The centre block features a parapet with moulded coping above a strapwork frieze of terracotta and a moulded modillion cornice. The flanking wings are gabled and detailed similarly to the Tanner Row front. In the centre block, the ground and first floors are treated as in the Tanner Row front, while the second floor windows are mullioned and double transomed over sunk panelled aprons. A fine clock, cantilevered over George Hudson Street on a wrought-iron bracket, was made by GJF Newey of York. The interior has not been inspected.
