8, Milk Street

No. 8 Milk Street is a house that was later converted into two shops and is now one establishment. It dates from the late 16th century or early 17th century, with a facade added in the mid-18th century. The building features painted brick over a timber frame and has a Welsh slate roof. It is two storeys high and has a six-window range. To the left, there is an early 19th-century bow window, and there are a pair of late 19th-century shop fronts with outer doorways and windows separated by thin glazing bars. The upper windows are 12-pane sashes, with one being blind. The building has an overhanging moulded wood eaves cornice and a single gabled dormer in the roof.

Inside, the building retains exposed timber-framing in the partition and rear walls. There is a late 17th-century staircase in the left-hand section, featuring a moulded rail and turned balusters. The wall panelling in the front and rear ground-floor rooms includes simple panels and a frieze in the front left-hand room, while the rear room has an ornate overmantel with tracery and scalloped decoration, which is likely not in its original position.
