Description

Close to the junction of Granville Street and St. Mary's Square is the entrance to Granville Place. This narrow lane runs in a roughly north-western to south-eastern direction from Granville Street and culminates after a short distance in a dead end. With the exception of the rather curious 1 and 4, Granville Place, there are few buildings of any architectural interest situated along Granville Place. No.1 is a tall thin brick building which presents a very blank and uninteresting elevation to the street. However, the north-eastern elevation, which faces away from Granville Place towards Buckingham Street, is in contrast very flamboyant. It is constructed of brick and is articulated with elegant and regularly arranged wooden sash windows which are emphasised with moulded classical detailing at ground floor level. This is a local building of note within the Conservation Area of Aylesbury. (B1).
