Shop, now an hotel. c.1860. Two facades of equal importance to Essex Road and Ockendon Road, set at a shallow convex angle to each other. Yellow brick laid in Flemish bond, stucco, roof obscured by parapet. Three storeys to each front. The ground floor projects as a shop front, two bays to each street, divided by piers of pink polished granite; the bays to Essex Road having original glazing and entrances with wooden doorcases, pilaster-jambs, cornices, overlights and woodwork decorated with incised ornament. First bay to Ockendon Road with original glazing, the second bay filled in c.1980. Entablature as shop fascia topped by continuous run of iron cresting. First floor on either front has flat-arched windows with round-arched stucco mouldings linked by springing bands, the tympana filled with modelled ornament; the windows in the first bay to Ockendon Road filled in on both floors. Second-floor windows have sills on brackets and cornices on consoles with elaborate scrolling ornament above. The Essex Road front is flanked by a moulded plaster panel to the south and a curved recessed plaster panel to the corner. Bracketed cornice with panelled frieze; blocking course with raised panel at corner with 'JAY' in incised lettering, the panel flanked by consoles with modelled floral ornament. Between the second and third bays of the Essex Road front, above the first floor, a large clock mounted on ornate iron brackets, with lettering 'ESTD JAY 1862'. A well-preserved example of a pawnbrokers' and jewellers' shop of the period.
