The elaborate window above the office entry door. The bronze plaque above the door is clearly contemporary with the building and records that this was the site of the house of the famous Derby artist Joseph Wright. The number in the tympanum is confusing as this is no.34, not no.32. Clearly street numbering has changed at some stage. See https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/8111133 for location
