39 and 41, Low Friar Street

39 and 41 Low Friar Street are shops and houses dating from the late 18th century to early 19th century, with later 19th-century shopfronts. They are built from English garden wall bond brick with ashlar dressings and feature a Welsh slate roof. The building has a curved right corner that connects to Fenkle Street and includes No. 16, which is the house above No. 41.

The structure consists of three storeys and six bays. No. 39 has a three-bay shop on the left, with a central door set in an architrave. There are two curved corner bays, and a deeply recessed entrance on the left. One bay on Fenkle Street has two steps leading up to a five-panelled door with an overlight featuring glazing bars, all set in an architrave. The shop fascias and brackets are currently covered in hardboard.

Above the shops, the windows have wedge stone lintels and projecting stone sills, with late 19th-century glazing bars. The roof curves at the corner, and there are brick ridge chimneys. This building is included for its group value.
