Description
No. 14 Barnsbury Road is a former public house, originally known as the White Conduit House, dating from the mid-19th century. The building is constructed of yellow brick laid in Flemish bond, with an asphalt roof that is partially visible. It stands three storeys above a basement, featuring dormers in the attic. The principal facades on Barnsbury Road and Dewey Road each have two windows, while Dewey Road also has a two-storey range with a dormer and one window.
On the ground floor, the pub front has two entrances on Dewey Road. The left entrance features panelled doors set back to create a porch, with engaged columns and an archivolt above. The right entrance has superimposed pilasters, a cornice, and an overlight. The entrance on Barnsbury Road closely resembles the left entrance on Dewey Road. The openings are flanked by pilasters, and there are top-lights above the windows and entrances, although there is no surviving decorative glass, and one window on Dewey Road is blocked. The building has a fascia, a cornice, and the first and second floors of the main block are adorned with giant pilasters flanking the window bays, creating paired pilasters at the centre of each facade. The capitals of these pilasters feature delicate neo-Classical ornament. All windows are flat-arched; those on the first floor have pilasters and a pediment, while those on the second floor have a simpler architrave. A frieze on both fronts is inscribed with sunk lettering that reads 'WHITE CONDUIT HOUSE', and there is a modillion cornice and blocking course above. The dormers are set in a mansard roof, which also has end stacks.
There is a two-storey wing that is stuccoed on the ground floor, featuring a flat-arched entrance and one flat-arched window. The first-floor window has pilasters and a cornice, although this has been partly simplified. The wing also has a cornice and blocking course, a dormer in the mansard roof, and an end stack. The interior of the building does not have any surviving features of interest.
