Description
Nos 90-94 on Fleet Street are a group of offices with shops on the ground floor, built in 1900. The building was designed by H Huntly Gordon, with carving work by Gilbert Seale. It features red brick with stone dressings and has a steeply pitched tiled roof that extends to a parapet. The structure is five storeys tall, plus an additional roof storey, and is designed in the Arts and Crafts style.
The building has four main bays above the ground floor. The ground floor is clad in stone and features a central round-headed arch with a moulded design, lacking a capital, and topped with a gothic-style traceried canopy. On either side of this arch are wide segmental arches that enclose 19th-century plate glass shop windows, with the left window displaying a later 20th-century fascia. The ground floor also has prominent keystones and a carved cornice above.
The upper storeys are adorned with canted bay windows that have mullioned and transomed casements in the outer bays. The inner bays feature paired segmental windows set in semicircular-headed reveals, with timber mullions and transoms on the first and second floors. The third floor has segmental windows in semicircular-headed stone reveals, flanked by pairs of square-headed subsidiary lights. Each bay on the fourth floor has a low segmental window, recessed behind a row of Ionic columns. Above the third floor, there is a subsidiary cornice, and the main cornice above the fourth floor is prominent over the centre pair of bays, which is crowned by a gable that includes two two-light mullioned windows with cornices. The building also has gabled dormers on the right and left sides, along with tall chimney stacks.
