Description
No. 8 Frederick's Place is a later 18th-century corner house that shares a similar character with No. 6. It features a first-floor sill band and a plain entablature below the added top storey. The building has two windows facing Old Jewry, with a stuccoed basement that has no area and architraves around the ground floor windows. There is a long, irregular return to Frederick's Place, which includes a corniced doorway with a plain fanlight and carved brackets that are likely older than the building itself. The door has octagonal panels, and there is a Venetian window set under a brick arch, which has been altered below.
