ISLINGTON

TQ3183SE ISLINGTON HIGH STREET 635-1/65/530 (East side) Nos.100-104 (Even)

GV II

Terraced houses with shops to ground floor. Early C19, the shopfronts possibly mid-C19 in origin. Yellow brick set in Flemish bond (nos 102-104 painted), stucco, roof obscured by parapet. Three storeys, two windows to nos 100 and 104, one window to no 102. Shopfronts probably uniform originally; pilasters, consoles with acanthus decoration, and dentil cornices remain throughout. The glazing of nos 102 and 104 appears to be at least in part of C19 date. Upper storeys have flat-arched windows with moulded stucco architraves, each house flanked by Doric pilasters rising through both storeys. The outer houses have cornices on consoles to first-floor windows, the middle has a segmental pediment on consoles to first floor and cornice to second, so that the group of three reads symmetrically; in addition no 100 has quoins on inner side of pilasters. 6/6 sashes of original design to all windows except no 100 (second floor). Moulded stucco cornice and blocking course; stacks to party walls.
