Description
No 2 King Street is a building dated "IBE 1712" above the door. It features red brick with some stone on the ground floor and basement, and has an old tiled roof with a massive off-center chimney. The building is two storeys high, with a basement and gabled dormers, and includes three windows. There are brick bands over the first-floor windows, partially at the first-floor sill height and over the dormer windows. The dormers have early 19th-century casements, while the first-floor sashes have boxed frames with cambered head linings, though the glazing bars are missing. The ground floor windows are similar to those above, with an additional later double sash that has a wooden canopy with a shaped edge. The shop front is from the 19th century, featuring an entablature, cornice, and architrave, along with side pilasters. The old door has the top four panels now glazed, and there are stone steps leading up to it. The return to King Street has one window on the first floor, matching the style above, while the gable end is blank. The ground floor has an altered 19th-century shop window.
No 2 King Street is part of the same house and has a fine late 18th-century or early 19th-century doorcase with a shallow enriched cornice, entablature, and pilasters featuring lozenge motifs. This section also has two storeys and a dormer, with two windows: one modern casement on the ground floor, and above, early 19th-century casements along with one blocked first-floor window.
