Description
A terrace of three houses, now shops with accommodation above, dating from the early 18th century, with alterations in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of red and blue brick in Flemish and English bonds, and has a roof of handmade red clay tiles. It has a double-range plan facing southeast, with two internal stacks at the left end and two to the right of centre. There are cellars and an attic.
The front elevation features three shop fronts on the ground floor. The shop at the left, “The Ingatestone Florist,” has a half-glazed corner entrance with rusticated plaster pilasters to each side, and 20th-century shop windows. The central shop, “Peninsula Fish Bar,” has a glazed door and an early 20th-century moulded fascia. The shop at the right, “Shadrack Wallace”, features a central glazed door and a fascia with several courses of 20th-century brickwork above. The first floor has nine 19th-century sash windows of four lights each, set within original openings and with segmental brick arches above. Three hipped dormers are present; the left dormer has an 18th/early 19th-century sash, while the others have 20th-century casements. There are three raised bands of brickwork, one running below the first-floor window sills, and two above. A plain parapet tops the building.
The side elevations are in English bond, with blue headers creating prominent horizontal stripes against the red stretchers. About 2 meters above ground level on the left elevation is a brick inscribed 'I.F. 1736', marking a parish boundary. A parapet gable is visible on the left side, facing Fryerning Lane. The rear elevation has six windows of various types on the first floor. Number 60 has one 20th-century sash of four lights, and one altered sash of six and four lights. Number 62 has one 20th-century sash of two lights, and one altered sash. Number 64 has one original sash of six and six lights, and one altered sash of six and four lights. Four dormers are present; the one at the right end has a 20th-century casement and flat roof, and the others are 18th/19th-century casements.
Three single-storey rear extensions, one facing Fryerning Lane with a flat roof, have been added. A photograph from around 1903 shows Number 64 with a Georgian door, Number 62 with a 19th-century bay, and Number 60 with early 19th-century double bow shop windows.
