Hibernia Chambers

Hibernia Chambers is a commercial building located on Borough High Street in Southwark, constructed in 1850 by William Cubitt. It is designed in the Italianate style and features yellow brick with stone dressings. The building has two storeys and a substantial basement plinth, with eight bays facing Borough High Street and six bays on the south return.

The main elevation is notable for its outer bays, which are flanked by giant pilasters that support a heavy entablature, complete with a panelled frieze and a modillion cornice topped by a balustraded parapet. Each outer bay contains an entrance opening framed by a stone architrave, resembling ground-floor windows but with a segmental pediment above; the right opening has been converted into a window. The ground-floor sash windows, which have glazing bars, are adorned with architraves, friezes, and cornices on console brackets. The first-floor sash windows also feature glazing bars and shouldered architraves. The south return mirrors this treatment, with pilasters between all windows and an arcaded basement storey of banded rustication.

The interior has not been inspected. Prior to its reconstruction in 1976, the area below Borough High Street was used as warehouses. The London Provision Exchange was established at Hibernia Chambers at the beginning of the 20th century.
