Bronze and glass under a painted band reading EST. 1934 · BOXING · TRAINING, with frosted lower glass and a punchbag in the window. It began as a 1930s boxing club front. Behind it is the gym, with its own changing room and showers. The boxing ring was dropped at the cost check; the south side render still shows one.

The room behind it has its own page under behind the fronts: Ironside Boxing Club · the gym, modern boxing gym.
