19, Dam Street

No. 19 Dam Street is a house and shop, likely dating from the 17th century, with a front added around 1820. It is built of brick with a stuccoed front and has a tiled roof with brick stacks. The building is L-shaped and consists of two storeys with a three-window range and a top frieze. The central shop front features pilasters, a frieze, and a cornice, along with a 12-pane fixed window and an overlight above a half-glazed door. There is an entry at the left end with an iron gate. The windows have sills; the right end of the ground floor has a small-paned fixed glazing with an opening light, while the first floor includes a small window at the left end and two windows with horned sashes—one with eight panes, which may have been altered, and another with twelve panes. The roof slope has two stacks. At the rear, there is a gabled wing with a smaller return gable and casement windows. Inside, there are chamfered beams; the left return features a large fireplace with a bressumer and a back made of narrow bricks, while the right return has timber framing with braces.
