110 Colmore Row is a Grade II listed building.

1902, by William Henman and Thomas Cooper. Granite with irregularly spaced red jointing bands. Facade and plan are alike complicated. Three bays, the outer ones like square turrets with battered sides, bobbin-like finials at the corners and shallow domes sprouting flag-staffs, the centre one with a large ground floor tripartite window and a 1st floor bow window welling out from the facade and carrying a spiky iron railing. The turrets each have a tall ground noon frame with battered sides and dentilled undulating pediments. In the frames, on the left, the entrance with window above and, on the right, a tall window. Above these, each turret has a simple sash window with detached pedimented cornice and a window set within deeply splayed reveals and behind 'mullions'. The plan with, towards the back, an almost completely circular shape to the left and an octagonal shape to the right.
