Description

Firth's Stores is a shop with accommodation above, dating from the mid-18th century with later additions from the late 19th century and 20th century. The building is constructed of red brick, featuring some areas of colourwashed render. It has a plain tiled roof with brick coped and tumbled gables, moulded brick eaves, and a single gable stack.

The structure is two storeys high and has a four-bay front, with a single lower 19th-century bay on the right side, which adjoins No. 58. The ground floor is finished with colourwashed render. There is a doorway on the right with a segmental head and a partially glazed door. To the left, there is a 20th-century shop front with a plain plate glass window. Another doorway to the left has a segmental head, a blocked overlight, and a partially glazed door. Beyond this, there is a plain sash window with a segmental head. The upper floor features four plain sash windows, with a 20th-century cross mullion casement to the right, all of which have segmental heads.
