Description

The building on the north corner of Rochester Row and Stillington Street is a commercial structure dating from around 1870. It is constructed of yellow brick with white dressings and features three storeys plus a basement. The façade facing Stillington Street is nine windows wide and exhibits a muscular Victorian Eclectic style. The windows are segmental-headed with gauged heads, white brick architraves, and raised impost bands. There is rustication in the brickwork above the ground floor windows, along with raised brick bands between the storeys and polychrome patterns between the windows. A central chimney stack is present, along with a white brick corbel table and a brick cornice. The building returns to Rochester Row, where it has an end stack and a lower three-storey, three-window wing that follows the same architectural style, complete with a carriage entrance.
