SD 73 SE PADIHAM BANK STREET

3/23 No.2 - - II

Includes nos. 4 and 6 North Street. Oddfellows' Hall (now flats), shops and flats, 1845. Sandstone ashlar and slate roofs with copings. 3 storeys under a simple cornice on a corner site, with the entrance on the corner itself in a projecting quadrant under a pediment. 2 bays to the left, 1 to the right flanked by a pilaster, beyond which are 4 further bays under the same cornice and terminated by a pilaster, but with each storey taller because of the cross fall. Plain sill bands on first and second storeys. Doorcase in corner bay with rudimentary capitals and a simple cornice whose blocking course is the sill of the tall window above; this has slightly projecting jambs and lintel. Below the upper sill band in the middle of the North Street facade is a plaque reading ERECTED BY THE I.O. OF O.F.M.L. A.D. 1845. The ground floor windows of No.2 are wider than those above and were probably originally shop windows. No.6 North Street has modern shop windows, but No.4 retains late C19 doorway.
