Description
This is a shop, originally built as a dwelling, likely dating from the late 17th century, although it has a later facade. The building is constructed of brick and has a plain tiled roof hidden behind a parapet. It is two storeys high with wide gabled attics, and has a four-window front. The upper windows are 12-pane sash windows with curved tops. A shop front has been inserted and recessed. A central chimney stack is present. The interior contains various ceiling beams, including a spine beam with run-out stops, which may be remnants of an earlier structure.
