What is recorded here

Attached three-bay four-storey commercial building, built c. 1935 as part of cohesive block of five similarly detailed buildings, having square-headed recessed bays to middle floors, and recent shopfront to ground floor. Pitched roof, concealed by brick parapet with square recessed panels, moulded brick and lead-lined cornice, topped with carved sandstone urn finial to south side. Parapet gutters with recessed cast-iron box-downpipe (replacement) to south side. Machine-made red brick walling, laid in Flemish bond, with projecting horizontally channelled brick piers to outer sides, rising to moulded lead-capped stringcourses over middle floor windows (continuing across neighbouring buildings). Square-headed window openings, with brick voussoirs, brick sills to top two floors and masonry sills to first floor. Original one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows with ogee horns to upper floors, and replacement uPVC windows to first floor. Ground floor retains moulded masonry cornice of earlier shopfront.
