Description
Arcade House, on Finchley Road, comprises two-storey ranges built in the 1960s by Parker and Unwin. The building features projecting, three-storey gabled ends that extend over the pavement, creating a pair of arcades supported by stone piers. The main construction is brick, with a mock timber-frame design above the shops. A recessed centre is topped with hipped dormers, while the gables themselves are half-hipped and overhang.
