ISLINGTON

TQ3285SW HIGHBURY NEW PARK
635-1/39/473 (West side)
Nos.69 AND 71

GV II

Semi-detached houses. 1856-61. Developed by Henry Rydon and
probably designed by Charles Hambridge. Yellow brick set in
Flemish bond with dressings of red brick, stone and probably
stucco; roof of Welsh and artificial slate. Three storeys over
basement, three windows each. Steps up to entrance with
stilted pointed-segmental arch, cornice and overlight; the
archivolt, which here and elsewhere could be of stone or
stucco, is set in a panel of gauged red brick rising from a
brick impost band which links the entrance to the two
ground-floor windows which are detailed in the same way. Sill
course of red brick to first-floor windows which are
round-arched with foliage imposts, gauged brick head and flush
archivolt with pointed extrados; the second floor has four
linked windows with chamfered mullions of brick and wedge
lintels probably of stone, the chamfer stop being in the
stonework; brick dentils to boxed eaves; hipped roof with
stacks to party wall and sides, those to the side truncated on
no 69, those to no 71 with oversailing courses; no 71 has a
basement and ground floor wing added to the right, probably
also in C19, with canted bay to both storeys and stilted
segmental-arched windows with foliage imposts to ground floor,
probably of brick and stone but now stuccoed; parapet with
trefoil ornament. Included for group value.
