Description

No. 4 St James' Street is a former office building, now a bar, dating from around 1870 and altered in the late 20th century. The structure is made of brick with ashlar dressings and features slate roofs, including a single ridge and a single side wall stack. It is designed in the Gothic Revival style and includes architectural elements such as a plinth, quoins, string courses, shouldered coped gables, and parapets.

The building has two and three storeys and a three-window range. The front has double gables, with the smaller right gable set slightly back. The left gable features two large traceried pointed arch windows with traceried transoms and linked hoodmoulds, flanked by single small glazing bar casements. At the peak of this gable is a quatrefoil. Below these windows, to the right, is a chamfered pointed doorway with a traceried head and a quatrefoil light above a panelled double door. To the left of the doorway, there is a two-light mullion window, followed by a similar three-light window, both with pointed lights, flat heads, and leaded glazing.

The right gable has a pair of flat-headed two-light mullion windows, and above them is a pointed three-light pointed arch window with traceried side lights. Below this, there is a flat-headed three-light mullion window with pointed lights. All windows in the building have leaded glazing. To the right of the right gable, there is a pointed arched doorway with a trefoil above the transom. The interior was refitted in the late 20th century.
