Description

The building at Nos. 98 and 100 Long Street, known as the Post Office, is a house that has been converted into a shop and post office. It dates from the late 18th century and is constructed of Flemish bond brick, featuring a rendered string course at the second floor and a moulded rendered cornice. The roof is not visible behind the parapet. The building has a double-depth plan and stands three storeys tall, with a façade consisting of two bays on the left, one central bay, and two bays on the right. The angles of the building are slightly recessed, while the central bay projects slightly and, along with the right bays, forms the Post Office.

The ground floor, dating from the early to mid-20th century, is made of limestone ashlar and is designed in a classical style. The projecting bay features moulded double-leaf doors with four panels and a fanlight set in a hollow-chamfered arch with a console. It has a Tuscan Doric doorcase with half-columns and an entablature. There are three windows with glazing bars, each having fielded panels below, with fielded pilaster panels on the left and right and paired pilasters between them, all under a continuous entablature. No. 98 to the left has a 20th-century shop front. The upper floors have four-pane sash windows throughout; the Post Office section has rusticated rendered flat arches with keyblocks, while No. 98 has plain lintels. The interiors have not been inspected.
