Summary[edit]

Description
English: WHSmith's, Streatham High Road. Lift your eyes from the pavement and even in the most unpromising of places, all kinds of delights will reveal themselves to you.

Above WHSmith's is a fine 1930s Art Deco style front. Note the stepped pediment at the top, vertical panels of windows, and the multi-paned leaded casements with decorative bands, the whole facade being set within an ornamental frame.

Sharman's was a dress shop and drapers, no doubt dating from the time when Streatham was known as the "West End of South London". See here for a view of the whole terrace: 1846501
