5, Corve Street

No. 5 Corve Street is a house that has been converted into a shop, dating from the late 18th century. The building features a sandstone faced plinth and a painted brick ground floor, topped by a hipped Welsh slate gable roof with a central brick ridge stack. It stands three storeys high, with a cellar and a two-window range. The windows include 6/6 sashes beneath gauged brick flat arches on the lower level and 4/4 sashes above. The eaves are adorned with brick modillions. Access is via stone steps leading to a six-fielded panel door, which has a fanlight in a round-headed case, all under a wooden open-pediment hood supported by wooden columns. To the right, there is a 20th-century bay shop window in an altered opening, also beneath a gauged brick flat arch.
