What is recorded here

Corner-sited two-bay four-storey house, built c.1750, but possibly much older, with partly blank three-bay elevation to east. Now in use as public house. M-profile slate roof, hipped to east to front (north) and rear (south), with rendered chimneystack having clay pots, hidden behind rendered parapet wall with masonry coping. Ruled-and-lined rendered walls with channelled render quoins and render eaves course to front. Square-headed window openings throughout with masonry sills and replacement timber sliding sash windows, six-over-six pane to top two floors of front, to one opening of second floor to east, one-over-one pane windows to top two floors of east, and twentieth-century ribbon windows to first floor of each elevation. Recent shopfront to ground floor, wrapping around to both elevations.
