84, Highbury New Park

No. 84 Highbury New Park is a detached house built between 1856 and 1861, developed by Henry Rydon and likely designed by Charles Hambridge. The house features yellow brick set in Flemish bond, with red brick and stucco or stone dressings, and a roof made of artificial slate. It stands three storeys tall over a basement and has a three-window range.

The entrance is accessed by steps leading to a round-arched doorway located in a single-storey wing that is set back to the right. The archway is adorned with alternating red and yellow brick, featuring an outer moulding of embattled billets, a foliage impost band, and a machicolated parapet. The main facade includes a shallow bay that extends across the basement, ground, and first floors.

On the ground floor, there are two round-arched windows with heads of alternating red and yellow brick, set beneath a moulding of embattled billets and linked by an impost band decorated with flora and fauna. The first floor showcases three windows arranged in a round-arched stucco arcade, supported by panelled pilasters with foliage capitals and an unmoulded archivolt featuring a pointed extrados. A balcony on the first floor is corbelled out on three oversailing courses of bricks set at an angle.

The building has a red brick cornice band at the coped parapet, which has been rebuilt. The second floor features two windows with wedge lintels and chamfered reveals, where the chamfer stops in the stonework. Brick dentils can be seen at the boxed eaves, and the hipped roof has external stacks that have been truncated. There is also a single-storey bay on the left-hand return between the stacks, which may be original.
