Shop. 1879, by James Lynde; altered. Probably cast-iron
framed, with cladding of wood and stucco, slate roof.
Irregular plan on narrow corner site, curved at the corner and
then canted back to Tib Street. Eclectic style with Aesthetic
Movement elements. Four storeys and attic, one bay to
Piccadilly, curved corner bay, and 6-bay return to Tib Street
canted in the centre; iron columns and cornice to ground floor
(altered shop fronts, with deep C20 fascia board perhaps
concealing original features); upper floors galleried, divided
into bays by short iron columns with stiff-leaf caps, each bay
containing a 4-light canted bay window (curved at the corner),
and each floor a panelled frieze and cornice with brackets
between the bays; steeply-pitched roof with pedimented 2-light
dormers (a tiered pediment to that over the Piccadilly
facade), and at the corner an extruded circular turret with
3-light window and slated spirelet.
