Description
The Health Centre, built between 1935 and 1936 by Middlesex County Council with chief architect W T Curtis, features a steel frame constructed with monk-bond red and Flemish-bond brown brick. The flat concrete roof is highlighted by a wide cornice band beneath deep eaves on the staircase tower. The building has an asymmetrical plan with one and two stories. All windows are metal casements, featuring two or three horizontal glazing bars between broader mullions and transoms, mostly set within horizontal brown brick strips and connected by narrow concrete bands. The front has three bays, with a broader central bay and an entrance located under a flat curved canopy to the left. A staircase is situated in a rounded bay to the right, illuminated by a long window with four double lights, which is shielded by the tower and chimney at the rear. The upper floor of the rear elevation consists of three bays, while the single-storey rear block has five bays. The interior has not been inspected.

It experiences an average of 30 freeze-thaw cycles a year, fewer than 65% of listed buildings. Of these, 13 follow at least 1 mm of rain in the preceding 48 hours. Average temperatures at this location have risen by 0.3°C per decade since 1991.
