28 And 29, Market Place

These two shops with living accommodation above date from the early 19th century, with later 19th-century alterations. The building is constructed of brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with a French tile roof. It is three storeys high and two bays wide. On the left-hand side is a 19th-century shop front with a door to the left, and a decorative frieze supported by acanthus leaf consoles. The right-hand side features a similar 19th-century shop front, also with a door to the left and a frieze that terminates in brackets. The first floor has a 16-pane sash window beneath a channelled lintel with a fluted keystone on the left, and a late 19th-century canted bay window on the right. A band runs around the second floor. The second floor has a 16-pane sash window to the left, and a 4-pane sash window to the right - both positioned beneath channelled wedge lintels with fluted keystones. A dentilled eaves course runs along the top, and there is a gable coping and a kneeler on the right. A ridge stack is located to the right. The building is included on the listing for its group value.
