12, 13 and 14, Suffolk Parade

A terrace of three shops with residential flats above, dating from approximately 1850 to 1860, with later alterations. The building is constructed of stucco over brick, with a slate roof, and includes hipped gables at the right-hand end and stucco over brick end and party-wall stacks. It is two storeys high with attics, featuring six first-floor windows. Full-height service ranges are located at the rear. The stucco detailing includes tooled architraves to the first-floor windows, with their heads incorporated into a moulded frieze. Modillions support the wide eaves, which rest on moulded corbel brackets. The first floor has horizontal-pane sash windows, two panes wide. Roof dormers feature three-pane sashes where original. The ground floor contains projecting shop fronts. Flat entrances have three-panel doors with overlights. The shop fronts have three windows with turned mullions, canted to the right to accommodate double doors, which are part-glazed with original lower panels and overlights. Above the shop fronts is a continuous frieze and dentil cornice, with raised brackets at the ends and over the domestic doors. Some dentils are missing at the right-hand end. The rear of the building retains some horizontal-pane sash windows, two panes wide, and some three-pane sashes. The interior has not been inspected. The building forms a group with the Parish Centre of St Philip and St James, Suffolk Square, and other 19th-century properties within Suffolk Parade.
