Description
No. 70 Gillygate is a house that has been converted into shops and a flat, dating from around 1770, with early 19th century and 20th century alterations. The building is constructed of brick, mainly in Flemish bond, and features a pantiled roof.
It stands two storeys high with four bays. The first floor windows have rubbed brick flat arches and are sashed without glazing bars. On the ground floor, the left bay contains a tripartite sash window without glazing bars, which is a late 20th century addition. The two right bays feature an early 20th century shopfront with a recessed doorway. In the second bay, there is a panelled timber pilaster doorcase with a fanlight and an open dentilled pediment. Above the pediment is a flat brick arch of a blocked opening, indicating that the doorcase may not be original.
The timber gutter cornice is both bracketed and dentilled, and there is a downpipe on the left with a fluted lead hopper head. The left gable is coped, and there are chimneys located on the right and behind the ridge. The interior has not been inspected.
