Description
No. 16 is a house and shop located in Durham and Framwellgate Market Place, dating from the mid-19th century. The building is constructed from sandstone ashlar and features a Welsh slate roof with a yellow brick chimney. It stands four storeys high and has two bays.
The shopfront includes keyed moulded round arches above the door on the left and a shop window with rounded top corners. The recessed shop door is fitted with bevelled glass panels, and both the fanlight and shop top light have glazing bars. Three Mannerist Ionic pilasters support a bracketed dentilled cornice. The first-floor windows are plain sashes, while the late 19th-century second and third-floor sashes have shouldered architraves and sill bands. The first-floor windows are adorned with pulvinated friezes and cornices. The building also features moulded quoins and a bracketed top cornice, along with a banded chimney at the left end.
