What is recorded here

Terraced two-bay two-storey former house, built c. 1870, with traditional-style timber shopfront inserted c. 1990, in use as commercial premises. Pitched artificial slate roof, black clay ridge tiles, rendered chimneystack to east gable, plastic gutter, and cast-iron downpipe. Painted ruled-and-lined rendered walling with rendered soldier quoins to either end. Square-headed window openings with moulded architrave surrounds, painted stone sills and uPVC windows. Shopfront comprises pair of large fixed-pane display windows and glazed timber door flanked by timber pilasters and timber fascia with painted lettering.
A modest building which has lost much of its historic fabric, but its proportions and render detailing give it some architectural appeal while sitting neatly into a streetscape of similarly scaled buildings. The building is an integral part of the streetscape and adds to the architectural character of Main Street within the historic core of the town.

This does not grant access. Most recorded buildings are privately owned; view them only from public ground unless the owner allows entry.
