6, Kings Square

No. 6 Kings Square is a house with late 16th century origins that was rebuilt and extended at the rear in the mid-18th century, with 20th century alterations and a shopfront. The building has a timber-framed core, with the front rendered and color-washed, featuring a moulded console cornice made of timber. The rear and right return of the ground floor are constructed of orange-red brick in stretcher bond, while the first floor likely retains original plastered infilling between exposed studding. The roof is steeply pitched and covered with pantiles, topped by a brick stack.

The exterior showcases a three-storey, two-window front. The shopfront is framed by panelled pilasters with glazed doors on either side of an elliptical bowed shop window, and there is a broad fascia beneath the moulded cornice. The windows on the first and second floors are twelve-pane sashes set in raised architraves with moulded sills. At the rear, there is a three-storey, two-window gabled wing, which is largely obscured by adjacent buildings.

Inside, the main elements of the framing, including posts with jowled heads, are visible on the first and second floors.
