Description
Nos. 6 and 8 on Church Street is a house, likely built for a putting-out manufacturer, dating from the late 18th century. It was altered in the 19th century and is now used as two shops. The building is constructed of watershot coursed sandstone with three bands and features a moulded gutter cornice. It has a slate roof with end wall chimneys and a double-depth three-bay plan.
The structure is three storeys high. The ground floor includes a modern shop window in the first bay and a large double-fronted 19th-century shop window with slim columns and consoles in the second and third bays. The upper floors each have three coupled vertical rectangular windows, with a sill band at the first floor and both sill and head bands at the second floor. The second-floor windows in the centre and right are sashed, while the others have been altered. On the right return wall, there is a doorway with a plain surround and, at the second floor level, a taking-in door with a slab canopy supported by brackets. The rear of the building has a two-storey extension.
