house

Terraced two-bay three-storey former house, built c.1820, having later timber shopfront to front (south). Now in use as retail unit. Pitched slate roof with rendered chimneystack, eaves course and cast-iron rainwater goods. Rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with render sills to front elevation, having one-over-one pane timber sliding sash windows. Later timber battened shopfront with pilasters and frieze having raised lettering and cornice. Square-headed window opening with two-pane timber-framed display window over rendered stall riser. Square-headed door opening having double-leaf timber battened doors giving access to internal porch.

Forming part of a pair of buildings, this pair forms an integral part of a historic terrace. This terrace, occupying the north side of South Main Street is an important component of the historic character of the town centre. Now in commercial use at ground floor level with recent shopfront insertions, the upper levels of these buildings retain fabric and features of interest.
