A ground-floor view of 29 Trinity Church Square, Newington, looking north. Columns with Ionic chapiters but unfluted shafts appear to support a structural beam. The front windows have panelled shutters in place. Number 29 was the largest house in Trinity Church Square (Trinity Square until the 1930s), the footprint of the building including the conservatory being about four times the area of any other. From the front it appeared to be the same size, but it occupied the corner plot to the side adjacent to number 30 and extended much further to the rear. The first resident was William Chadwick, the developer of all the houses around the square bar three earlier ones. In the 1930s to the 1960s the house was part of the Trinity Residential Club, a gentlemen's club, after which it fell into the state seen. The house was replaced in 1970 with a block of seven flats retaining only the facade.
