101-107, Chestergate

Nos. 101-107 on Chestergate is a row of two shops and a restaurant, originally four shops with accommodation above, and possibly two dwellings. The building dates from the mid-18th century or earlier, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed from roughly coursed and squared stone, topped with a stone-flagged roof. The structure is low at two storeys and features an irregular four-window range, divided by a central passage, indicating two separate phases of construction.

Nos. 101 and 103 are likely the earliest parts of the building. The late 19th or early 20th-century shop windows are set in plain architraves on either side of two central doorways. Above these, there are two- and three-light wood casement windows. The rear elevation has paired gables, with a partially blocked three-light stone mullioned window above a rear doorway. Nos. 105 and 107 feature an early 20th-century shop front to the left, with a shop window in a plain architrave and a door to the right. Above, there are two three-light casement windows. The end wall stacks are present, with the left stack truncated, and an additional truncated stack is located in the centre of the rear wall of Nos. 105 and 107.
