Description
The Jugged Hare public house, located at 49 Chiswell Street, is a late 19th-century building constructed of yellow brick in Flemish bond, with dressings of gauged red brick and stucco, and a slate roof. It stands four storeys high over a basement and features a curved elevation at the corner site. The facade has four windows facing Chiswell Street, one at the corner, and two on Whitecross Street.
On the ground floor, there is a pilaster at the east end in Chiswell Street that supports a fascia stop and is flanked by a short stretch of rusticated stucco. The opposite end in Whitecross Street also has rusticated stucco and a fascia stop but without the pilaster. Between these elements is a fascia and modillion cornice, along with a wooden pub front that appears to be a late 20th-century reproduction of a late 19th-century design.
The first- and second-floor windows are segmental-arched and feature moulded stucco architraves, attached cornices, and keystones. The keystones on the first floor are adorned with festoons, while the second-floor windows have panelled aprons flanked by consoles. The facade is accented with quoins of gauged red brick at either end, and the corner windows are flanked by panels of gauged red brick arranged alternately long and short to imitate quoins, as well as sunk panels of one brick's width.
A storey band of gauged red brick runs above the second floor, topped by a modillion cornice and blocking course. The mansard roof features two pedimented dormers facing Chiswell Street and one facing Whitecross Street, with the corner dormer having a segmental-arched shape with a moulded stucco architrave and pediment. The roof is covered in fish-scale slates, and there is a ridge stack on Whitecross Street.
Inside, the public house contains a late 19th-century bar front and bar back, though these may not be complete or in their original positions.
