Description
23 Gower Place is a late 19th-century warehouse and shop with flats above. It is built of red brick with terracotta dressings and features a slated mansard roof. The roof has a central gabled dormer, which is flanked by stone-dressed gables. The shop front includes stone Jacobean pilasters that support an entablature. To the left, there is a 20th-century goods entrance with a panelled head. A sill string runs along the first floor level. The windows are architraved and pedimented, with a continuous frieze band decorated with swags. Above the cornice, there is a Lombard frieze, followed by an undulating parapet that has rectangular terracotta panels and ball finials. The central gabled dormer features a cornice with an enriched frieze, which is broken forward at the angles and topped with ball finials and a pediment. The interior has not been inspected.
