Walton'S Butchers Shop And Attached House

Walton's Butchers Shop and the attached house date from the mid to late 19th century. The building is constructed of brindled brick in Flemish bond and has a Welsh slate roof. The house features two storeys and two bays, positioned to the right of a small single-storey shop with a rear wing. The house has a central six-panelled door set in a pegged frame, topped with an overlight and framed by a brick arch. It includes four-pane sash windows with projecting stone sills and brick flat arches. The eaves and verges overhang, and there are round-ended bargeboards along with end stacks that have projecting bands and caps.

The shop has a wooden front with part-glazed double doors and a vented overlight on the left side. To the right, there is a raised panel and a large six-pane sash window with a fixed upper frame. A wooden cornice with acanthus consoles sits above a blind box that features a fascia painted with 'Est. 1856 H.M. WALTON BUTCHER'. The roof of the shop also oversails. On the left side, the rear wing has a segmentally-arched doorway and a round-arched window. At the back, there is a detached slaughterhouse, which has an open-fronted bay on the left and a Welsh slate roof with a louvred ridge. Walton's Butchers is said to have been established at a nearby farm before moving to these premises.
