No. 245 Streatham High Road - Century House
This imposing building in the Art Deco style, is dated by the granite corner stone laid by Alderman Sidney Sanders J.P. on June 22 1938 … Century House was purpose-built as the headquarters of the jewellers and goldsmiths James Walker and Sanders & Sons and this partnership became one of the largest chains of jewellery shops in Britain. The firm was taken over by H. Samuel in 1984. This building was a very early example of office-to-flats conversion dating back to the 1960s.
Stylistically the building is in two very distinct parts … The powerful horizontal emphasis of the lower block contrasts dramatically with the vertical strength of the tower.
Century House with its dramatic tower crowned by large integral clock faces is a key focal point leaving and entering Streatham from the south. Along with the Ice Rink opposite and the many other excellent examples from this period, within the Conservation Area, Century House forms part of the strong core of buildings which define the early to mid Twentieth Century character of the Conservation Area.
