Appraisal

No. 63, Neal Street

A 19th century reconstruction in stock brick of the original property but retaining the 17th century scale. Comprising three storeys with a mansard storey at third floor level. Two sash-windows on each floor – undivided at first floor level, 2-over-2 at second floor level. Altered, traditional shopfront with modern retractable canopy. An externally-illuminated projecting sign on the right hand side at first floor level, with an additional neon sign directly below. Externally illuminated applied lettering on the fascia. The projecting internally-illuminated box sign between the first floor windows and the neon sign are unauthorised intrusions which detract from the character and appearance of the conservation area. There are flower boxes located on the ledge above the shopfront.

A building of modest architectural interest and townscape value contributing modestly to the character, appearance and significance of the Seven Dials Conservation Area.

It is recommended that discontinuance action should be taken by Camden Council in relation to the unauthorised, internally-illuminated projecting sign and the neon sign.
