Description

Dunraven Arcade is a terraced group of three-storey buildings 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 arcade has pilaster strips at the ends and each bay, with Grecian capitals on the latter. There is an overall cill band at the second floor, which is also present at the first floor of Nos 26 and 30. The roofs are slate, with a steeper pitch for Nos 22 to 26 and an attic storey for No 28. The chimney stacks are made of rubble and brick.

The frontages consist of 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 generally have bracketed lintels, except for No 28, which features 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 have a mix of sash and modern windows. All the buildings have modern shop fronts. 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.
