Description

This building is a row of four shops located at 2a-8 Minshull Street, dating from the early 19th century. It is constructed of brick and features a Welsh slate roof. The building is two storeys high, with each shop having a two-window range. The terrace has a stepped profile that follows the slope of the street. At the time of the survey, the shop fronts had been removed for refurbishment, but the upper windows are four-pane sashes with flat-arched gauged brick heads. The interior was not inspected.
