house

Terraced three-bay three-storey former house, built c. 1900, having recent timber shopfront to front (north). Now in use as a retail outlet. Pitched artificial slate roof with red brick chimneystacks, moulded red brick eaves course and uPVC rainwater goods. Flemish bond red brick walls with moulded red brick sill bands to first and second floors. Camber-headed window openings having moulded rubbed red brick voussoirs and surrounds with replacement uPVC casement windows. Replacement timber shopfront comprising pilasters, consoles, frieze and lead clad cornice. Square-headed window opening having fixed single-pane timber-framed display window. Square-headed door opening having glazed timber door surmounted by single-pane overlight. Located fronting directly onto Main Street.

This attractive building provides much needed variety of form and fabric within the surrounding streetscape. Forming part of a pair of identical buildings, this building is distinguished by the utilisation of red brick as the main fabric, this creates a vivid contrast against the rendered forms of its neighbours. Various artistic details including moulded red brick sill courses and window surrounds greatly enliven the façade. Its recent timber shopfront is sympathetic to the historic character of this impressive building.
