Description
The Hallam Book Centre, originally a house built around 1830, now serves as a Catholic Repository. The building features brick construction with ashlar dressings and a hipped slate roof, which has two side wall stacks. It has a plinth and dentilled wooden eaves. The structure is two storeys high and has a three-window range of plain sashes with keystone lintels. Below these windows, there is a central Classical wooden doorcase with pilasters and a pediment, topped with a plain fanlight. On either side of the doorcase, there are restored mid-19th century single light shop windows, each with a pilastered wooden surround and cornice. To the left of the main structure, there is a single-storey addition featuring a ramped coped parapet and a 20th-century single pane window. The interior has not been inspected.
