Description
This is a pair of two-storey houses, built in the 1820s and 1840s, which are now a shop and workshop. The building is constructed of brick in Flemish bond, with pantile and Welsh slate roofing.
The Bridgegate facade has four first-floor windows. To the left is a shop front with a half-glazed panelled door, decorative glazing bars, and flanking fixed shop windows with glazing bars set within panelled reveals. The door surround has reeded pilasters with brackets, a plain frieze, dosserets and a cornice. A central door has a panelled surround, reeded jambs, and acanthus consoles supporting a plain frieze, dosserets, and cornice. To the right is a recessed fixed shop window with glazing bars and an opening section below a plain frieze and cornice. The first floor has two sashes with glazing bars to the left, and two fixed windows to the right, all beneath channelled wedge lintels with dropped keystones. A wooden eaves board runs along the top of the facade. The roof is of Welsh slate to the left two bays and hipped pantile to the right two bays.
The Northolme Street return facade is two storeys with five bays. It includes a wide bay with a rounded corner to the left, a symmetrical three-bay central section, and a set-back bay to the right. A six-fielded-panel door with overlight is housed in a pilastered doorcase with panelled reveals, brackets, a plain frieze, and a cornice. The first floor has four-pane sashes and three sashes with glazing bars. A length of approximately two-metre-high brick wall contains a round-arched doorway to the extreme right. The first floor windows have darker red brick quoined jambs and stone sills, beneath channelled wedge lintels with dropped keystones. The right bay has two two-light Yorkshire sashes with glazing bars, one above the other. The roof is hipped except for the right bay, which has gable coping and a shaped kneeler. A ridge stack is present. An internal wall with stop-chamfered spine beams with run-out stops were noted during surveys.
The building was formerly the local post office around 1850.
