1913 J D Kitson architect.
Ashlar, 5 bays in the Renaissance palazzo manner, the order being Roman Doric, but
with many individual interpretations which prevent the elevation being merely a
worthy scholarly exercise.
High ground floor, plain ashlar to cill level, then above, bonded rustication. An
entrance in each end bay.
The ground floor, basement, supports a portico of giant Roman Doric columns rising
through 2 floors the 3 centre bays being recessed behind them. The echinus of the
order is carved with egg and dart.
Above this a full entablature breaking forward over the columns, the frieze being
decorated with circles.
The elevation is then completed with a very deep parapet.
First and second floor windows have architraves and pediments.
