Description
Derwent Water Chambers is a 17th-century house that has been converted into a restaurant and shop. It features a timber frame with painted render, and the roof is not visible. The building stands four storeys high and has five bays. The shop windows are flanked by fluted Tuscan pilasters from around 1900, which support an entablature. There is a renewed fascia on the left side and a central wrought iron gate from the same period leading to the passage entrance. To the right, there is a four-panelled door. The upper floors are adorned with wood mullioned-and-transomed windows, some set within architraves, with casements in the lower lights, most of which have glazing bars. Long sill brackets rest on corded strings, and the upper floors are jettied. A partial cornice is present at the second floor. Inside, there is a wide Tudor-arched stone chimney piece under a brick relieving arch on the first floor.
