94-108, Church Road

This is a terrace of dwellings and offices with shops at ground floor level, built around 1870 in Hove. The buildings are constructed of yellow stock bricks with moulded brick detailing, brick quoins, and rusticated brick piers, with shaped brackets at ground floor level to distinguish each unit. The roof is slate, hidden behind a moulded parapet with a dentil cornice, particularly prominent in the taller, outer bays, and features brick stacks with moulded caps.

The terrace has an additional storey to its end bays and abuts buildings to the right, returning to the left onto Fourth Avenue. It is arranged over three storeys plus an attic, with a 1:6:1 bay arrangement. Most windows are sash windows with a single vertical glazing bar. The outer bays project slightly and have gabled dormers; cast-iron balconies are provided to the windows below. The first floor is distinguished by segmental-headed pediments above each window, containing shell and foliage decoration within the tympanum. Twentieth-century shop fronts replace the original in most sections, except for the central bays, numbers 102-4 (Cullens), which retain a wooden pediment with a rustic scene in the tympanum, believed to be original. The left return front is three bays wide and faces Fourth Avenue. The terrace forms a group with numbers 105-119 (odd) Church Road on the opposite side of the road.
