Description
No. 11 is a house that has been converted into a restaurant and offices. It was built in the early 19th century, with a shop added around 1870. The building is made of English garden wall bond brick, featuring a painted stone plinth and ashlar dressings, topped with a Welsh slate roof. The shop is designed in the Venetian Gothic style and has four storeys with four bays on a curved corner.
The first bay has a renewed door set in an architrave beneath an altered hood. The shop front includes a blocked central door with a window inserted, flanked by two windows on either side, all set in cusped shouldered arches adorned with nailhead decoration beneath a quatrefoil pierced frieze. The moulded fascia brackets are topped with battlemented crestings. The upper floors feature sash windows, some with glazing bars, positioned under flat brick arches and supported by projecting stone sills. There are two-brick-wide floor bands, and the roof, which curves over the corner, has two end brick chimneys.
