Description
This building, known as Nos. 2, 4, and 6 Church Street, is an office structure with ground floor shops, dating from around 1880. It has been restored and altered in the late 20th century. The exterior is constructed of brick with an ashlar ground floor and dressings, topped with renewed steep pitched hipped and gabled slate roofs featuring wrought-iron finials and crests. The building is designed in the Gothic Revival style and includes a plinth, cornices, and sill bands on each floor, along with an arcaded balustrade.
The building rises three to four storeys plus attics and has a six by three window arrangement. The windows are predominantly stone mullioned cross casements, with some featuring panel tracery. The east front showcases a canted off-centre three-storey oriel window, which has a three-light window on each floor, while the attic level features single lancets under gables. There are three-light windows on each side, with two shouldered single lancets to the right and two traceried two-light windows to the left. Above these, the fenestration continues similarly, and there are four gabled dormers with pairs of lancets. At either end of the building, there are polygonal oriel windows in three stages, topped with spires; the left one has traceried stone windows, while the right has simpler, plainer windows.
The ground floor features an off-centre Tudor arched entrance with a projecting gable and a cusped doorway with shafts and panel tracery. To the right, there is a four-centred arched doorway flanked by larger arches that contain late 20th-century shop windows. To the left, there is a wider elliptical arch with a late 20th-century shop window. The left return to Church Street has a slightly recessed centre with a traceried two-light window on the upper floors and three gables with two pairs of lancets. The right bay has similar fenestration, while the left bay features two tall single lancets on each floor. The ground floor has three four-centred arched openings with late 20th-century shop windows and doors. The right return rises four storeys and has four cross mullioned windows, two and three lights, on each upper floor, along with four dormers featuring double lancets. The ground floor includes two four-centred arched openings and, to the right, two pointed doors. The interior has not been inspected.
