Description
39 Chorlton Street is a town house that has been converted into a shop. It dates from around 1800 and has been altered over time. The building is made of brick, painted white, with a slate roof and features a double-depth single-fronted plan. It stands three storeys high and has two windows. The eaves are adorned with wooden modillions. To the left, there is a round-headed doorway with an open-pedimented doorcase supported by semi-columns and entablatures, along with a plain fanlight. To the right, there is a 20th-century shop window, while the first floor has two segmental-headed windows with altered glazing. The second floor features one square sash window without glazing bars. There is a cut-down gable chimney on the right side. The interior has not been inspected. This building is a rare example of Georgian domestic architecture in the city centre and is part of a group that includes No.9 Richmond Street, a similar building, and No.37, the Churchill Public House, located between them.
