Description
The Corn Exchange, now used as offices, was built in 1856. It features red brick with limestone dressings and has a hipped slate roof with two wall stacks. The building is two stories high with a three-bay front, where the central bay is slightly advanced. It has a plinth, a string course, a moulded parapet, and rusticated quoins.
The entrance consists of central double half-glazed doors arranged in a tripartite layout, flanked by tall lights. These are supported by rectangular pilasters with tiled inlay, scrolled brackets, and a moulded pediment. On either side of the entrance are two plain sash windows, also in tripartite settings. The first floor features three semi-circular headed margin light sashes, each with shouldered stone architraves and keyblocks. Above the middle window, there is a rectangular plaque inscribed in relief with "MDCCCLVI". At the center of the parapet, the town arms are depicted in stone.
