Description
No. 23 Thorngate is a house, likely a former weaver's cottage, dating from the early 18th century. It is built of coursed squared stone with ashlar dressings and features a roof made of stone slates, complete with stone gable copings and a chimney. The building has three storeys and a two-window range.
On the left side, there is a moulded early 18th-century surround framing a boarded passage door. To the right of this door, there is an inserted glazed door topped with a flat stone lintel. The ground floor has a 16-pane sash window, while the first floor features 12-pane sashes. The top floor contains smaller windows, with the outer ones having 9 panes and the central window having 3 wide panes and 3 narrow panes. The roof has gable copings, with the right side resting on a cyma-recta-moulded kneeler, while the left kneeler is missing and appears to now be part of the adjacent property, No. 25. The interior has not been inspected.
