Description
Dunraven Arcade is a terraced group of three-storey buildings dating from the early 19th century, with later alterations. The frontages are classical, featuring scribed and plain stucco, an overall moulded cornice, and a plain entablature. Numbers 22 to 26 have balustraded parapets. The buildings have pilaster strips at the ends and at each bay of Dunraven Arcade, with Grecian capitals on the pilasters. There is an overall cill band at the second floor, which also appears on the first floor of Nos 26 and 30. The roofs are slate, with a steeper pitch on Nos 22 to 26, and No 28 includes an attic storey. The chimney stacks are made of rubble and brick.
The frontages feature three windows for Nos 26 and 30, two windows for No 28, and one window each for Nos 22 and 24. The first-floor windows have bracketed lintels, except for No 28, which has architraves on both floors. The outer bays of No 26 have pedimented bracket lintels. No 28 retains small-pane sash glazing, while Nos 22 and 24 also have sash windows. Nos 26 and 30 feature a mix of sash and modern windows. There are modern shop fronts throughout the arcade, and a drum clock projects from No 28 on ornate iron brackets. The left side of the arcade is exposed due to the demolition of a London house.
