Description
54 Fishpool Street is a late 18th-century building that features a front added to a 17th-century range. It is two storeys high with three windows on the front. The building is constructed of red brick and has a steep, swept tiled roof with wooden box eaves. The first-floor windows are casements with glazing bars set in flush box frames, positioned under shallow segmental gauged brick arches. The ground floor has sash windows with glazing bars in flush moulded frames, topped with flat gauged brick arches.
The doorcase features an open pediment-shaped head with a dentil cornice and a cut soffit, supported by similar cornice ends over carved scrolled consoles on panelled pilasters. Within the pediment, there is a blank panel framed by tiny pilasters, adorned with Adam decoration on either side. The door has deep panelled reveals and is set under a cut and reeded architrave. At the rear, there is a weatherboarded extension with a hipped tiled gable.
Additionally, there is a memorial tablet from the 1914-18 period set into the wall, part of a series of plaques in St Albans that commemorate the fallen from individual streets and localities. The building is part of a group that includes Nos 24 to 46 (even) and Nos 50 to 54 (even).
