Description
No 4 Currer Street is a Grade II listed building located in the precinct known as "Little Germany." It is part of the same block as the Law Russell home trade warehouse at 63 Vicar Lane. This building, designed by Eli Milnes, was constructed in 1860 and extended in 1867. It features a four-storey and three-storey design with a basement, reflecting the sloping site. The exterior is made of dressed sandstone "brick" with ashlar dressings.
The building has a distinctive bowed inset corner facing Field Street and is adorned with rusticated quoin pilasters. The ground floor showcases vermiculated courses and basement rustication, while the Field Street side is plain. Architectural details include plat bands, bracketed sill bands, and a bed mould to the frieze, which is decorated with fielded panels and modillion brackets supporting a projecting moulded eaves cornice.
The first floor is characterized by round arched windows with eared flat surrounds and apron panels flanked by consoles. The radial glazing bars remain intact on both Field Street and Vicar Lane. The entrance, located at the corner with Field Street, features a deeply vermiculated surround, a plain ashlar impost band above the doorhead, and a semi-circular fanlight. The arch is detailed with alternately vermiculated voussoirs and carved spandrels. Above the doorway, there are tripartite windows, with the first-floor window topped by a segmental pediment on consoles. Additionally, there is a warehouse waggon archway with ornate iron gates at the end of the Field Street elevation.
