2 and 4, Appleton Gate

2 and 4 Appleton Gate are two houses that have been converted into a shop. They date from the late 18th century and have undergone alterations in the late 19th and late 20th centuries. The buildings are constructed of brick and topped with a pantile roof. Architectural features include first and second floor bands, half-round dentillated eaves, a single coped gable, and a single gable stack. The structure has three storeys and a two-window range, with a segment-headed tripartite sash window on the ground floor, flanked on the left by a smaller blank space. Above this, there is similar fenestration with smaller square-headed windows. The ground floor features a late 19th-century wooden shopfront with brackets supporting a dentillated cornice and a 20th-century sunblind. To the right, there is a splayed doorway with a glazed door and overlight, and to the left of this doorway is a fielded six-panel door with an ornamented keystone.
