Description


HOVE

TQ2804NE THIRD AVENUE 579-1/17/121 (East side) (Consecutive) 2-9 King's Mews

GV II

Includes: No.35 THIRD AVENUE. Mews, now dwellings over garages. c1883, altered early C20. Yellow stock bricks, brick quoins and moulded brick and stone dressings, slate and bitumen covered hipped slate roofs with overhanging eaves carried on bracket cornices, tall brick stacks with moulded caps rising from eaves on facade, flanking first floor window to each block. U-plan, entrance to yard closed by archway. (No.1 King's Mews is known as No.35 Third Avenue.) The entrance blocks were originally identical and the southern block is the least altered; 2 storeys, 3 bays, central first floor window, renewed with mid C20 metal oriel below gable top, ground floor 3-bay segmental headed blind arcade with keystone and continuous entablature; northern range with original first floor window and inserted early C20 many paned sash windows in northern 2 bays, half-glazed door adjoining. Blocks linked by 2-storey scroll-headed archway, moulded cornice and string, decorative brick panels at first floor level, quoins and moulded entablature to round arched opening, inserted C20 doorway right. Some original sash windows and doors survive in the mews. This is the only mews block with an archway entrance and it seems unlikely that any of the other mews were originally built with such an imposing entranceway.
