43, Appleton Gate

This is a late 18th-century house, later used as a shop and house, with alterations made in the late 19th and 20th centuries. The building is constructed of brick, with the ground floor partly painted, a rendered and painted gable on the right and a pantile roof featuring a single gable and single ridge stack. It has an incomplete first-floor band and dentillated eaves with coped gables. The house is three storeys high and has a three-window front. The upper floors contain segment-headed 12-pane sash windows; the right-hand window on the first floor is blank. Above these are three 6-pane sash windows, the central one being blank. On the ground floor to the left is a round-headed passage opening. To the right is a late 19th-century shopfront with pilasters, a wooden fascia cornice, and a recessed central glazed door flanked by single-pane windows. The group value of the building lies in its contribution to the streetscape.
