23 And 24, Highbury Crescent

23 and 24 Highbury Crescent are semi-detached houses, now used as offices, built between 1845 and 1846. They were developed by James Goodbody and James Wagstaffe, and are likely designed by Wagstaffe. The buildings are constructed of brick and stucco, with a slate roof. They rise two and three storeys above a basement, each featuring three windows, with a central blank window shared between the two houses.

The half-basement and ground floor are stuccoed, with the ground floor showcasing banded rustication. The entire width of the houses is highlighted on the ground floor by pilasters, an entablature, a triglyph frieze, and a modillion cornice. There are steps leading up to a round-arched entrance with a fanlight, which is sheltered by enclosed Doric porches featuring antae, a triglyph frieze, and a modillion cornice. The ground-floor windows are flat-arched, while the first-floor windows are round-arched in the central bays, adorned with Corinthian pilasters and archivolts. The outer bays have eared architraves, with a simple cornice on the central bays and a composite modillion cornice on the outer bays. The attic features eared architraves with some original sash windows, and there is a broad stucco string course at the parapet, which is simplified. The roof is hipped, with a stack on the party wall. Notably, the outer bay of number 24 has been raised to three storeys.
