1A And 1B, Market Place

1A and 1B Market Place is a former house that later became shops, originally known as Auckland House. The left part dates from around 1850 and has had 20th-century alterations to the ground floor. The building is constructed of ashlar with a brick return on the right and features a Welsh slate roof in a classical style. It stands three storeys tall with seven windows. The ground floor has new shop windows and doors; the left shop includes a double door on the left and a wide entrance with a roll shutter in the second and third bays, while the right shop has a central recessed door. A full-width fascia may hide the original shop entablature. Above, there is a giant attached Corinthian order, with the second and sixth bays being wider, supporting an entablature adorned with dentils, modillions, and a blocking course. The fixed lights have plain reveals and fine glazing bars, possibly made of metal, along with opening transoms. The first floor features voussoirs over round heads and segmental arches of paired lights in the wider bays. The second floor has nine-pane lights set on a bracketed sill band behind the orders.
