Description
61 and 63 Low Petergate is a former house, now used as a shop and offices, dating from around 1746, with 20th-century alterations. Originally built for Thomas Marfitt, the front is made of buff-pink brick in Flemish bond, while the rear is constructed of orange brick in English garden-wall bond. The building features a timber cornice and a hipped slate roof with brick stacks.
The exterior has four storeys and a four-window front. The 20th-century shopfront includes shallow canted bay windows and a dentilled cornice that continues from the adjacent property at No. 59, which has the shop door. The first-floor windows are unequal 15-pane sashes, the second-floor windows are 12-pane sashes, and the third-floor features 2-light casements, all with renewed sills and flat arches made of orange gauged brick. There are raised brick bands on the second and third floors, and a heavy modillioned cornice with a moulded rainwater head, which is decorated with a winged cherub head and the initials TM. The interior has not been inspected, but records indicate there are two contemporary staircases.
