Chase House

Chase House, located at 55 and 55A Preston Street, is an 18th-century building that stands two storeys high with an attic and features three windows and two dormers. The structure is constructed of red brick and has a cornice and parapet. It includes two curved bays, each with a three-light window on both the ground and first floors. The ground floor of the south bay has been altered to create a shop front, while the glazing bars remain intact except for this section. The building has a wide doorway flanked by engaged Doric columns, a triglyph frieze, a projecting cornice, a coved recess, and a semi-circular fan-light above a door with six moulded panels. Chase House is part of a group with Nos. 53 and 55 to 59.
