Description
No. 28A on Church Street is a late 17th-century house that features painted incised stucco with a painted rendered plinth and ashlar dressings. The building has a Welsh slate roof and no visible chimneys. It stands three storeys high and has four windows.
The door of No. 28, located in the first bay, is an eight-panel door that is partly glazed and set within a pedimented architrave inscribed with "POTTS HOUSE." In the second bay, there is a partly-glazed six-panel door, and at the right end, there is an eight-panel door that is accessed by two steps, also within an architrave. The windows are sash windows, with a tripartite arrangement in the third ground-floor bay, glazing bars on the first floor, and late 19th-century sashes on the second floor.
