Description

The former mews, now converted into dwellings over garages, was built between 1875 and 1879 by builder J. Ockenden. It features yellow stock bricks with moulded brick dressings and shallow pitch hipped slate roofs, along with overhanging boarded eaves. The structure has brick stacks with moulded caps, which survive on No. 1.

This U-shaped range of mews faces Second Avenue and is one-and-a-half storeys high. The north-west range (No. 1) has a central gable that projects slightly forward, featuring a segmental-headed window that cuts into an ornate frieze at the eaves cornice. To the left of the gable is a window end bay, and a moulded string runs along the outer bays, which have segmental heads of a blind arcade. The ground floor is almost entirely obscured by inserted garage showrooms with a fascia for Hugh's of Hove.

The south-west range is similar but has two windows on either side of its central gable, with the segmental heads of the ground floor arcade resting between them. This ground floor is also completely obscured by 20th-century garage showrooms with a fascia for Hugh's of Hove. The mews surrounds a stable yard and displays mixed fenestration, including some original sash windows without glazing bars and early garage doors.
