29, East Street

29 East Street is a terraced house that has been converted into a restaurant and offices. It dates from the late 18th century or early 19th century, with a shop front added in the mid to late 19th century. The building is constructed of brick in Flemish bond, with mathematical tile facing on the spandrels of the bay. The roof is obscured by a parapet.

The exterior features four storeys above a basement and consists of one window range. The ground floor is occupied by a shop front, which has an entablature with a dentil cornice that ends at each party wall in a large console bracket stop. Above this, there is a three-storey segmental bay in the centre of the elevation, featuring tripartite, flat-arched windows. The bay extends just below the parapet, which rises slightly in the centre to create a very shallow and unadorned pediment. The bay windows have early 19th-century sash windows: on the first floor, there are 6 x 9 panes in the centre and 4 x 6 panes on the sides; on the second floor, 6 x 6 panes in the centre and 4 x 4 panes on the sides; and on the third floor, 3 x 3 panes in the centre and 2 x 2 panes on the sides. The window heads on the top storey feature wooden louvres that date from the late 18th to early 19th century. The top of the bay is finished with an entablature, and there are stacks on the party wall.

The interior has not been inspected. The building is part of a group that includes Nos 26-31 and 33-36 East Street, which face onto a small square formed by the widening of East Street at its northern end. According to local legend, this group was built on the site of a small wharf on an inlet.
