Title
Building in Southampton Row
Description
A view of 65 Southampton Row, Holborn, on the corner with Bloomsbury Place. Numbers 1-5 Bloomsbury Place can also be seen, a Grade II listed terrace of four-storey townhouses. Ground floors have rusticated stucco, as do the quoins on first and second floors. A bracketed cornice can be seen at third floor. Iron railings in front of basements lead to the entrance. Number 4 was the home of Sir Hans Sloane from 1695 to 1742; a blue plaque erected in 1965 by the London County Council commemorates this. The entrance to number 65 Southampton Row is at the same building as number 5 Bloomsbury Place and has a double doorway; all but one window out of six are blocked off. Large letters affixed to the third floor of the gable end wall read 'Jewish National Fund'. Cars and motorcycles with sidecars are parked.
