Description
Gresham House is a warehouse built around 1860, now used as offices. The building features a combination of ashlar and red brick and stands four storeys tall with a basement, comprising six bays. The basement has segmental-arched windows, some of which are fitted with iron grilles. The ground floor showcases an arcade of Moorish arches, with the fourth bay containing a doorway topped by a circular overlight, an ornate iron grille, and carved spandrels. It also has paired marble column shafts with carved capitals, and deeply recessed windows in similar openings with single columns. A deep bracketed cornice is located at the first-floor window sill level. The first and second floors have round-arched windows with dripmoulds and continuous sill mouldings, while the elaborate third storey features two-light round-arched windows with attached columns, carved capitals, and an impost band, topped by a moulded brick eaves cornice. The interior has not been inspected. The design is very similar to No. 19 Wellington Street.
