Description
22, 23, and 25 Hannah Street are buildings constructed from sandstone ashlar and red brick, featuring baroque detailing and an artificial slate roof with ridge tiles. They stand three storeys high with a basement, housing ground floor shops and former offices that are now club premises above. The original design included a central decorative gable with lower decorative wings on either side; the right wing is included in the listing despite being partly remodelled.
The shop fronts at Nos 22 and 23 are modern, while No 25, which was originally a baker's, displays a cast metal inscription band beneath its curved shopfront window. This shopfront features a slender mullion and a decorative recessed door to the left, topped with a large glazed panel and a steep curved pediment. The butcher's shop at No 24 is listed separately.
The first floor has a main frontage with five windows: one central round-headed window and four rectangular windows with renewed glazing, separated by pilasters that have deep keystones reaching up to a broken pediment above each window. The central keystone extends to a string course above, and all spandrels are filled with richly carved swags. The upper floor features three similar round-headed windows with fluted pilasters, decorative Ionic capitals, and cartouches with grapes on either side. Above these is a recessed decorative rectangular inscription plaque reading 'T E', adorned with carved corn and maize motifs and an engraved date of 1905.
Channelled pilasters on the sides support scroll brackets, from which rises a Flemish gable topped with moulded coping and five urns. The main roof is visible from the side, showcasing three gables. The right wing is rendered and has six round-headed windows with replaced glazing and a remodelled battlemented parapet. A postcard painting from before 1918 depicts the central gable in a form very similar to its current state, flanked by wings each featuring two lower Flemish gables.
