house

Terraced five-bay three-storey former house with attic, built c.1780. Now in use as retail outlet. Pitched artificial slate roof with rendered chimneystack, moulded eaves course and cast-iron rainwater goods. Lined-and-ruled rendered walls. Timber sliding sash windows, three-over-three pane to second floor and six-over-six to first floor, with stone sills. Shopfront comprising single and paired timber pilasters flanking tripartite fixed windows with stained-glass overlights and recessed doors, having glazed fascia, carved consoles and carved timber tympanum. Brass railings to windows and double-leaf cast-iron gate to recessed doors.

Despite recent renovation, this building retains its original form, including diminishing windows, which is typical of the Georgian style. The fine carved timber shopfront is a particularly notable feature of the building, and the retention of tripartite windows, stained-glass overlights and carved consoles enhances the historic character.
