Description
No. 2 West Street is a house with an attached stable and cottage at the rear, dating from the early 18th century, possibly incorporating older materials, with later additions from the early 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of red brick with limestone ashlar dressings and features a plain tiled roof with brick coped gables, moulded wooden eaves, and single ridge and gable stacks. It has an L-shaped plan and is two stories high with an attic, presenting an 8-bay front that includes a first-floor band.
The main entrance is to the right, featuring an ashlar doorway with half columns that have foliate capitals, a pediment with a semi-circular lower opening, a traceried fanlight, panelled reveals, and a panelled door. To the left of the doorway are four glazing bar sash windows, while to the right are two glazing bar sashes and another doorway with a segmental head and a plank door. Above the main doorway is a glazing bar sash flanked by two dummy windows with glazing bars, with two additional glazing bar sashes to the left and three to the right, all featuring segmental heads.
The stable, located in the north range at the rear, is built of colourwashed brick with a pantile roof and has two ridge stacks. It consists of a three-bay stable on the left with two doorways that have overlights and plank doors, and two long narrow windows to the left. Above, there are three gabled dormers, each with two-light casements. Attached to the right is an early 19th-century three-bay cottage, which has a doorway on the left with a segmental head and a six-panelled door, and two two-light sliding sash windows to the right. Above the cottage is a single gabled dormer with a two-light sliding sash and dentillated eaves below.
The main range's interior features an early 18th-century staircase with five flights and a return, showcasing three turned bannisters with square knops on each tread, simply moulded tread ends, and a raking, moulded handrail. The hall and three other rooms have fielded panelled dados and shutters, while one upstairs room contains a complete wall of panelling. The interior also includes simply moulded cornices and original six-panelled doors.
