Description

Bowes and District Working Men's Club is a house that has been converted into a working men's club, dating from the early to mid-18th century. It is constructed from tooled ashlar sandstone and features a stone-flagged roof with stone chimney stacks. There is a left link extension made of rubble sandstone, also with a stone-flagged roof.

The building is two storeys high and has two bays, with a plinth, sill and lintel bands, and raised quoins. The windows are paired 12-pane sashes with flat-faced jambs and central mullions, and there are small lunette windows above them with semicircular bands and raised keystones. The ground-floor lunette windows have radial glazing bars, while the first-floor lunette windows are blocked. The roof is low-pitched with coped gables and shaped kneelers, and there are end stacks with top ledges and water tables.

A short first-floor link section connects the club to Nos. 1 and 2, The Street, over an alley to the left. This link is supported by transverse wood beams of heavy scantling and has a low-pitched roof. The entrance to the club is located at the rear of the left return.
