Description
7 and 8 King Street are shops and dwellings that feature a late 19th-century front, likely built around a core from the 17th century. The building is constructed of stucco and has a slate roof, with a late 19th-century cross axial brick stack positioned on the left front. It stands three storeys tall with a cellar and has a two-window range. The windows are late 19th-century mullion and transom types, fitted with casements in moulded cases and wood sills. Above, there are similar windows and a boarded soffit at the eaves. The roof includes a late 19th-century dormer with a two-light casement and a weatherboarded gable.
The early 20th-century shopfronts feature a three-quarter glazed door in a moulded case on the left, accompanied by a canted mirror and a plate glass window, all with moulded glazing shafts. To the right, there is a late 20th-century half-glazed door with an earlier overlight and case, alongside a plate glass window also in a moulded case. A moulded fascia board is supported by plain pilasters.
Inside, the cellars are partly stone-lined and partly constructed with 18th-century brickwork, featuring massive main joists. The ground and first floors have massive ogee stop-chamfered ceiling joists, and there is an 18th-century dogleg staircase with an inscribed roof timber in No. 7.
