Description

26A Market Place in Brentford is a house built around 1820. It features yellow stock brick with gauged brick window arches, stone sills, and cast iron balconies with Gothic ornament at the rear. The building has three storeys and a basement, topped with a slate hipped roof. There are spearheaded railings over a dwarf wall facing the street. The entrance is located on the south side, beneath an arched window on the first floor that has a red gauged brick arch hood.

Inside, notable features include reeded door surrounds in the east room on the ground floor, a staircase with urn and column balusters and columnar newels, and a moulded stone fireplace surround with embossed ornament, along with in situ cupboards in the east room on the first floor. The second floor rooms have panelled partitions. The upper floors have six over six sash windows, while the ground floor windows, which were being replaced at the time of inspection, are plate glass. The house does not appear on a map from 1794 but is older than the 1837 tithe apportionment map.
