20, 22 and 24, Park Row

A terrace of three houses and shops dating from around 1900, built in the Arts and Crafts style. The buildings are constructed of brick and render, with party wall stacks and a tiled roof, and have a double-depth plan. The front is symmetrical, with brick end houses featuring overhanging gables, and a plastered and decorated central section with low eaves. Battered buttresses to the party walls are visible, and the outer houses have ground-floor distyle-in-antis Tuscan columns – No. 20 lacking the inner ones - supporting 20th-century shop fronts. Two-storey oriels are supported by brackets, with 25-pane windows on the first floor, a cornice, and 15-pane windows on the second floor, with outer brackets extending to the gable. The gable has modillion eaves and an oculus with decorative keys and an egg-and-dart hood. The central section has semicircular-arched doorways, the left of which gives access to a through passage, featuring leaded fanlights and two-leaf doors, and Ionic columns on pedestals. A forward-projecting cornice is supported by deep scrolled brackets. A raised panel holds a bowed oriel with four 10-pane casements; oculi with four fluted keys and festooned spandrels are located either side. A cornice and band is present above, bearing the inscription "EST 1864" either side of further plaster decoration. The central dormer has four casements and a gable. The interior of the buildings has not been inspected.
