Description

Dauncey House is a block of flats with shops, constructed between 1905 and 1906 as part of the London County Council Estate. It was designed by the LCC Architects' Department and attributed to Roger Stark. The building is constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, with stone copings and dressings. Glazed brick is used on the recessed balcony ranges at the rear. The roof is tiled.

The block is rectangular in plan and comprises five or four storeys, with dormers. It features balconies to the rear elevations, providing access to the flats, and stair towers. A distinctive feature is the broad, sweeping eaves, supported by elegant metal brackets, which are repeated across the five blocks forming the estate. All window openings are flat- or segmental-arched, containing sash windows of a traditional design.

The interior of Dauncey House has not been inspected. The building shares a general design with Mawdley House, Algar House, Delarche House, and Overy House, all of which have a similar plan (one side balconied, the other not), are four storeys high, and are constructed from the same materials. While the design shares some resemblance to the LCC Boundary Estate, the Webber Row estate possesses a notably individual character, likely introduced by the architect.
