Description
No. 27 Galgate is a late 18th century house that has been converted into a shop and flat. The building features pebble-dash render with painted ashlar dressings and a roof made of stone slates, which has stone gable coping and rendered and brick chimneys. It stands two storeys high and has a three-window range. The ground floor includes a renewed shop front with a central door in a wide projecting shop window, along with a set-back right shop window, all beneath a fascia that breaks forward over the centre. Above, there are three cross-casement windows in painted stone surrounds. The roof, also made of stone slates with a stone ridge, has a right gable coping and a rendered and brick chimney set high on the slope, along with stone plinths for the brick end chimneys, one of which has been renewed. The right return gable is rendered due to the demolition of the adjacent house. The interior has not been inspected.
