Description

No. 2 Howard Street North, formerly known as No. 29 Liberal Club, is a shop and club building located in Great Yarmouth. It was constructed around 1830, remodeled in the late 19th century, and altered in the 20th century. The building features a red brick structure with a stucco facade and a slate roof.

The exterior is three storeys high with a five-window range. The early 20th-century plate-glass shop front extends into Market Row under a fascia board that spans the entire width of the facade. Above the shop front, there are three central bays divided by engaged columns, topped with two pilasters, all lacking capitals. The first floor has three 6/6 unhorned sash windows, while the second floor has three 3/3 similar sashes, all of which are recessed. The outer bays are defined by pilaster strips that rise to Corinthian capitals and contain a tripartite sash on the first floor with 6/6 unhorned sashes, and a 3/3 unhorned sash on the second floor. The building features a dentil eaves cornice at the parapet and an egg-and-dart string course. The gabled roof has one stack on the front slope.

To the right, the facade curves into Market Row and includes Nos. 1 and 2, which have a tripartite window on the first floor without glazing bars and a modified sash on the second floor. The pilaster strips and parapet continue along this section. To the left of the elevation, there is an additional two-storey bay with an 8/8 unhorned sash on the first floor and a plain parapet. The ground floor has a late 19th-century facade featuring an arched entrance with strapwork decoration, flanked by two bays of canted glazing on the left and three on the right.

Inside, No. 29 has a sprung dance floor that was added in the 1950s, along with a late 19th-century staircase featuring tapered balusters, a moulded handrail, and square newels. No. 30 has a 20th-century open ground-floor showroom. The first floor of both properties now forms one continuous showroom, with an area at the south end of No. 30 featuring a plaster ceiling with geometric patterns that indicate the extent of a former room.
