32, Coney Street

No. 32 Coney Street is a house that has been converted into a shop. It dates back to around 1600, with alterations and extensions made in the mid-18th century and a remodel in the early 19th century, along with 20th-century changes to the shopfront. The building has a timber-framed core that is encased in red and black mottled brick in Flemish bond at the front, while the attic features vertical boarding above a moulded modillion eaves cornice. The rear is constructed of orange-brown brick in English garden wall bond, topped with a hipped slate roof.

The exterior of the original building is three bays deep and gabled towards the street, with an extension added at the rear. It stands three storeys tall with an attic and has a one-bay front. The shopfront includes recessed doors situated between curving plate glass windows. The first-floor window is a shallow bow design featuring three unequal 12-pane sashes beneath a fluted frieze and moulded cornice. The second-floor window is an unequal 12-pane sash with a painted sill and a flat arch made of gauged brick. Both first and second-floor windows are set within full-height shallow elliptical arched niches. The boarded attic has a small square opening, and a rainwater head embossed with a winged cherub head is located at the left end of the cornice.

At the rear, the ground and first floors are obscured by later extensions, but the second floor features a large elliptical arched opening that is partly blocked and has an altered window. In the attic, there is a 2x4-pane sliding sash window. Inside, the first and second-floor front rooms boast heavy moulded cornices and transverse beams that partition the ceilings, with the cornices cut back at the front. A reset staircase with a close string, slender turned balusters, and a plain handrail ascends from the first to the second floors. The front attic contains trusses of arched collared principals supporting single purlins, while the rear attic has a lime ash floor.
