Description

No. 6 Bridge Street is a house that has been converted into a shop and dwelling. The front dates from the late 18th century, while the core of the building is from the 17th century. It features a stucco exterior and a shallow-pitched Welsh slate roof, with a large rubble chimney stack at the rear. The building has three storeys and a cellar, with a two-window range that includes 8/8 sash windows in broad cases with simple architraves, as well as 4/8 sashes. The early 19th-century shopfront has a central 20th-century part-glazed panelled door and a margin-glazed overlight, flanked by bay windows with moulded glazing bars. Above the shopfront is a moulded fascia-board and hood, along with a late 19th or early 20th-century balcony featuring spat balusters. At the rear, there is an 18th-century brick wing with a chimney stack and a composite tile roof, which includes two late 19th-century 6/6 sash windows under segmental arches, as well as a single-storey timber-frame and plaster wing.
