Description

The Plumbers Arms Public House is a public house dating from the mid-19th century, located on Lower Belgrave Street in the City of Westminster. The building is constructed of stucco and features four storeys, with one main bay and an additional single-storey wing to the right. The ground floor has a pilastered pub front, while the first and second storeys are unified with triple windows that are flanked by Doric columns on the second floor and topped with a segmental pediment. The building also has rusticated quoins, an egg and dart cornice, and balustraded parapets, making it a notable curiosity in the area.
