Description

No. 8 Dock Street is a house dating from the mid-18th century, with alterations made in the 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of rendered brick and has a slate roof, featuring a deep moulded cornice and a parapet. It stands three storeys high and is two windows wide. The windows have plain architraves with keyblocks and moulded sills, and the sashes are without glazing bars in exposed casings. The second-floor windows are almost square and have a decorative ventilation tile between them. The ground floor has a late 19th or early 20th-century shop front with fluted pilasters and a modillion cornice. The interior has not been inspected. This house is part of the built-up south side of what was then Simpson's Fold, as shown on Jeffery's map of 1770, and Giles' map of 1815 indicates the house had a narrow rear wing, which was built over by 1847 according to the Ordnance Survey map.
