Terraced four-bay two-storey house, built c.1820, with timber shopfront to front (north-west) and recent gable-fronted addition to rear (south-west). Formerly in use as public house. Pitched slate roof with rendered eaves course, chimneystack and cast-iron and replacement uPVC rainwater goods. Rendered walls to front elevation, exposed rubble stone walls to rear elevation. Rendered wall to ground floor of rear addition having corrugated-iron to first floor. Square-headed window openings with stone sills throughout, having two-over-two pane timber sliding sash and uPVC casement windows with red brick voussoirs and sills to rear elevation. Timber shopfront comprising panelled pilasters and colonettes on rendered plinths, surmounted by scrolled brackets, architrave, frieze with painted signage and stepped corbelled cornice. Square-headed window openings with timber sills having fixed timber-framed single and multiple-pane display windows over rendered stall risers. Square-headed door openings with double-leaf timber panelled doors with single-pane overlights. Rendered enclosing wall to rear having circular-profile rubble limestone gate piers with red brick and rendered caps and corrugated-iron gates.
A handsome house that is distinguished in the streetscape by the retention of numerous historic features including timber sliding sash windows and a decorative timber shopfront. The fine shopfront is a particularly noteworthy feature in a town which has lost much of its authentic historic shopfronts to historical pastiche.
