Description
This is a three-storey house, originally dating to the early 18th century, and later altered around 1850 with the addition of a new front range. It is now used as two shops with flats above. The house is built of brick with ashlar dressings and has a two-span roof covered with slate to the front and tile to the rear. A brick stack is located in the centre.
The front of the building has a three-window arrangement. It features a shop front with stop-chamfered pilasters and an entablature, with a central entrance leading to a pair of glazed doors with an overlight. To the right end of the front is a round-headed entrance with an archivolt, keystone containing a rosette, fanlight, and a four-panel door. The first and second floors have sill bands and bracketed eaves. The windows on these floors have keystones to shouldered architraves, with scrolls on the first-floor windows, and all have four-pane sashes. Cast iron lamps project from the front.
The rear of the house features an original 18th-century range constructed with chequered brick and segmental-headed windows with casements and pegged frames. Two dormer windows are present on the rear roof slope. The interior of the house has not been inspected.
