Description

The Guild House. On the corner of New Market Street, is the former home of the Guild of Handicrafts building 1897-8 by Arthur S. Dixon. The pioneer building of Arts and Crafts radicalism in Birmingham and a perfect example of the quiet understatement which Dixon and others cultivated around 1900. Artifully simple, it's complex composition has subtle references.

It's now New Guild House.

This is a photo of listed building number 1075582.

12 New Market Street - British Listed Buildings

Guild House is a Grade II* listed building.

Includes No 12 New Market Street. 1895, by A S Dixon for the Birmingham Guild of Handicraft. Brick with minimum stone dressings; tiled roof. Three storeys, differing in the 2 gabled bays on account of the incline of the road. The fenestration by casements with glazing bars within shallow arched recesses with sunk quadrant mouldings, generally semi-circular at ground floor level, segment-headed at first floor level and depressed at second floor level. The modest entrance with flanking side lights in the right-hand bay. In the left-hand gable a sunk roundel with ventilator holes; in the right-hand gable ventilator holes in a diamond pattern. The left-hand return, being on a level, appears simpler with gabled bays left and right of 3 bays with bay gabled dormer windows in the roof. On this return, the entrance to No 12 New Market Street.
