Appraisal

Nos. 47-49, Neal Street

A handsome, late-19th century warehouse building, three bays in width and three storeys in height. Original, red brick elevation survives at first and second floor levels below a recessed ‘attic’ storey, with original, segmental arched window openings and paired, painted timber, subdivided sash windows to left hand and right hand bays and single, painted timber, subdivided sash windows at the centre. Traditionally detailed shopfront of three bays survives with pilasters and dentil cornice all painted matt black, spoilt by an over-deep plastic fascia over the central bay.

An unlisted building of particular townscape value, contributing to the character, appearance and significance of the Seven Dials Conservation Area.

There is clearly scope to remove the new, over-deep plastic fascia above the entrance and to improve the signing of the shop unit.
