Terraced two-bay three-storey building, built c.1790, with shopfront inserted to ground floor. Replacement flat roof with shared rendered chimneystacks to south party wall having clay pots. Roof hidden behind red brick parapet wall with granite coping. Red brick walls laid in English garden wall bond. Gauged-brick flat-arch window openings with painted masonry sills, single-pane timber sliding sash windows and timber louvred shutters. Mid-twentieth-century tiled shopfront with aluminium display windows and door and full-span timber fascia.
Capel Street was laid out in the late seventeenth century to connect Essex Bridge (now Grattan Bridge) to North Circular Road. The street was one of the city’s primary commercial thoroughfares and retains no original facades from the seventeenth century. Possibly an eighteenth-century building and built as one of a pair, this example was refaced during the late nineteenth century. This is a modest building which retains its balanced proportions and timber sash windows while contributing to the streetscape and the consistent domestic character of the area.
