glazing bars, under flat gauged arches. Parapet with coping. Interior

and sharply profiled cornices; geometrical staircase with enriched S pattern
wrought iron balusters, etc ... No 23 was the residence of James Rennell,
geographer, in 1792 (GLC plaque). The doorcase, of superior quality in its
proportions, would seem to relate to the, now demolished, contemporary houses
by Chambers in Berners Street.
