Description
8 and 9 Bridge Street are two houses that have been converted for use as a surgery. The front of the buildings dates from the 18th century, while the core is older. The right side of No. 8 is roughcast, while No. 9 features stucco, and both have a Welsh slate roof. The buildings are two storeys high with a cellar and have a four-window range. The windows include 6/6 sashes, with 20th-century sashes on the left and older glass in broad moulded cases on the right. The eaves are wood lined and bracketed on the right.
No. 8 has steps leading to a central six-panel door set in panelled reveals, topped by a moulded wood flat hood supported by consoles and flanked by fluted and panelled pilasters. This door is flanked by late 19th-century canted bays with plain sashes and a moulded wood band. No. 9 features steps leading to a 19th-century four-panel door with a glazed light and a blocked swagged fanlight, beneath a moulded wood open-pediment hood on consoles and panelled pilasters. To the left, there are late 19th-century canted bays with plain sashes and a moulded cornice leading to a roof. There is a passage to the rear with plank double doors on massive posts, rusticated stucco pilasters, and a massive rubble axial stack.
The right side of the buildings is returned and roughcast over rubble, with a wing at the rear that has a rubble buttress stack and a 19th-century mullion and transom window, as well as a 20th-century casement window in the gable. The left side features massive purlins supporting a plastered gable. The passage to the rear has rubble walls, exposed ceiling beams, and a moulded wood three-light mullion window on the right-hand wall above a shuttered cellar opening.
