Description

No. 20 Broad Street and Nos. 2-4 Frog Lane comprise an 18th-century urban building with Victorian shop front and a rear extension, alongside a separate two-storey range connected by a passage. The principal elevation of No. 20 Broad Street is red brick in a Flemish bond pattern, with stone window dressings. No. 4 Frog Lane is constructed from rough rubble stone. Both have slate roofs. The building occupies a corner plot, with No. 20 Broad Street being a two-bay range oriented east to west, and No. 2 Frog Lane projecting to the south. No. 4 Frog Lane is a two-bay range linked to the main building by a brick passage.

The principal elevation presents a symmetrical facade. A Victorian shop front is at ground-floor level, featuring a recessed half-glazed door with fielded panels and a rectangular overlight, flanked by large glazed areas with narrow glazing bars and glazed returns. Fielded panels sit above a plinth. The first and second-floor windows are eight-over-eight and four-over-four hornless sash windows, featuring projecting stone cills and rusticated lintels with keystones. The east elevation of No. 20 Broad Street has casement windows and a doorway, both with flat arch lintels. No. 4 Frog Lane has only a small casement window on the first floor. A brick junction links the buildings, projecting from No. 2 Frog Lane and including a doorway with an arched brick lintel.

According to a 2009 Historic Buildings Research report, No. 2 Frog Lane has a single room on each floor, with fireplaces in the west wall of the ground and first floors. Historic fittings remain, including shuttered doors to the ground-floor south window, a moulded fireplace on the first floor, and a moulded architrave around a door. No. 4 Frog Lane features flagstone floors, a simple staircase with moulded and chamfered details, and a brick-arched cellar. The roof structure is a king-post truss design with single purlins. The interior of the main building was not inspected.
