1903-04. Henry Grieves architect.
Red brick with ashlar dressings to doors and windows etc. Slate roof. Three storeys.
Edwardian "baroque" with some nice art nouveau embellishments.
Quadrant corner with King Street and the bay arrangement is as follows:- one to
King Street, 3 to the quadrant and 6 to Mile End Road. The second and fourth bays
to Mile End Road break forward and have semi-circular pediments rising above the
stone modillioned eaves cornice. The end sixth bay is carried above the eaves to
form a small square tower. This has a pyramidal roof with a nice spikey wrought iron
finial.
Ground floor openings have semi-circular heads with heavy "Gibbs" surrounds.
First floor openings have rusticated architraves with large keystones and stone aprons.
The centre window of the quadrant and those in the second and fourth bays to Mile
End Road have Ionic pilasters, entablatures and semi-circular pediments.
Third floor windows plain rectangular openings with stone frames.
Above the curved roof of the quadrant rises a little circular turret cap and with a
fine art nouveau wrought iron fleche. This is a nice "conceit" and makes a most
successful feature to this corner.
This building is the best example of its type in South Shields.
