75 And 75A, Upper Street

Nos. 75 and 75A on Upper Street is a terraced house and entrance wing to the former Electric Theatre cinema. The original house dates from the mid-18th century, while the cinema was built between 1908 and 1909. The building is constructed of brick, likely rendered with stucco or painted, and features a roof made of clay tiles. It stands three storeys tall with a dormer and has a four-window range.

The front wing is notable for its squat columns that support a large elliptical arch facing Upper Street, as well as a pair of round arches with keystones that open onto St Alban's Place. The parapet is adorned with a balustrade and a hemispherical dome, which was once topped by a female figure holding a large socket for an electric light globe that is now missing. The original house is set back from the street and includes a flat-arched passage leading to St Alban's Place on the south side. The first and second floors feature flat-arched windows with moulded stucco architraves and storey bands between the floors, along with a parapet. The hipped roof has one dormer.

The cinema was opened by Electric Theatres (1908) Ltd, the first company to create a chain of cinemas in London, making the entrance wing the earliest surviving part of a cinema in the city.
