Description

The building forming the western part of the Evening Chronicle building is a house dating from around 1700. It is constructed of dark red brick in a combination of four and one English garden wall bond, topped with a roof of pantiles. The structure has three storeys and three bays. A double garage door has been inserted on the ground floor, and the windows on the upper floors feature gauged brick flat arches, though they are all boarded up. There are brick floor strings, and the building has a shaped Flemish right gable leading to a high-pitched, swept roof. There is a rear extension at the ground floor level, and the interior has been largely gutted.
