Description
No. 26 Lands Lane is a shop and office building dating from around 1900, with some alterations made in the 20th century. It is constructed of brick, likely with a steel frame, and features a slate roof. The building stands four storeys tall and has one bay.
On the ground floor, there is a shop window and entrance on the left, with an entrance to the upper-floor offices on the right. The upper floors are highlighted by a full-height moulded brick arch, which is topped with a shallow moulded pediment and flanked by short octagonal turrets. The arch is fully glazed, featuring wood-framed showroom windows, with canted bays that have round-arched frames on the first and second floors, and a semicircular window with glazing bars on the third floor.
Attached to the building is a cast-iron gas lamp, with a bracket fixed to the left return and a lantern that has a ventilator at the apex, which has been restored. The interior has not been inspected. In 1906, the shop was occupied by Hawke and Hendrie, fancy drapers. The design of this building is similar to Nos 22-24 New Market Street, and it features storeyed bay windows within a round arch, a design that is also prominent at Percy Robinson's premises for Messrs Hepworth at Nos 2 and 4 Duncan Street.
