Oxford Chambers

Oxford Chambers is an office building constructed around 1900, likely designed by WH Thorp in partnership with George F Danby. It features red brick with stone dressings and a slate roof, showcasing a Renaissance Revival style that complements the adjacent Methodist Chapel. The building has banded rustication, an attached balustrade, and Corinthian columns. It stands three stories tall with five bays; the first bay has a curved wall with two and three-light windows, while the second bay features a tall entrance with panelled double doors and a stone panel above that displays the raised letters "OXFORD CHAMBERS." This bay also includes a wrought-iron scrolled panel in a semicircular overlight and a deep hollow chamfered surround. Above the entrance, there is a one-stage tower with round-headed windows, small balustraded balconies, and a parapet adorned with ball finials and a tall cupola. The attic storey is located in the pedimented gable of the fourth bay. Most windows are flat-arched, except for a circular window on the third storey of bay two and a Diocletian window in the attic. The interior has not been inspected.
