Description
Albion Chambers is a large Georgian house that has been converted into shops and offices. The exterior features roughcast rendered walls and a shallow pitched hipped pantile roof behind a parapet. The building has three storeys and an attic, with a four-window range of sash windows set in reveals: 6-pane on the top floor, 9-pane on the second floor, and 12-pane on the first floor. There is a plain band course above the second-floor window heads. The entire ground floor is taken up by projecting 20th-century shop fronts that include decorative leaded overlights and a wide fascia, along with recessed entrances. The side elevation facing Moor Street has a single range of sash windows, with no windows at attic level, featuring rendered voussoirs and a keystone. The ground floor includes a door and overlight with margin glazing. At the rear, there is a two-storey extension with 16-pane sash windows.
