Clifton House

Clifton House is a house with commercial premises, built in the 19th century and featuring painted stucco with a plain roughcast parapet. The building stands four storeys tall and has two bays, previously adorned with a stucco cornice similar to that of Brecknock House. The upper floors have twelve-pane sash windows, though the early 19th-century iron guards on the second-floor windows, noted in 1977, have since been removed.

The full-width 19th-century shop front includes a central shop door and a house door to the right, all beneath an overall timber fascia with early 19th-century iron railing above. The fascia is supported by scrolled brackets at each end and features raised roundels along the lower moulding. The railing is decorated with anthemion motifs framed by scrolls and rosettes in the top rail. The shopfront has two plate glass windows flanking a 20th-century recessed door with an overlight. A panelled soffit and a step with mosaic lettering reading 'Francis Chemist' are also present. The house door is a six-panel door with a rectangular overlight featuring radiating-bar fan tracery. A cast-iron lamp bracket is attached to the centre of the first floor.

The rear elevation, visible from Crackwell Street, showcases a paired gable that connects to the back of Brecknock House, indicating much earlier construction. This elevation is also painted stucco, standing four storeys and an attic, with a railed terrace and steps leading down to a lower garden. The attic has an 8-pane window, while the third and second floors each have two 16-pane sash windows, and the first floor features two 24-pane windows.

Inside, there are late 19th-century chemist's shop fittings, including shallow shelves on the left side wall with pilasters over panelled cupboards. The right side contains drawers labelled with the names of chemicals and pilaster framing for shelves. Coved cornices are present on three sides. The rear wall features a three-bay arrangement with doorways on the left and right, and a broad centre section with a carved wood frame and glazed lettered panels reading 'James Pharmaceutical Chemist' beneath a scrolled pediment, which is missing its central feature, likely a clock. The doors have thin piers that are part-fluted with consoles, and there are glazed lettered panels indicating 'Natural mineral waters' to the left and 'English and foreign pharmacy' to the right.
