Description
York House, now serving as shops, is a house built in the early 19th century. It features brick laid in Flemish bond with painted ashlar dressings and has a gabled Welsh slate roof with brick parapets and a brick stack at the rear.
The exterior is three storeys high and has a symmetrical three-window arrangement. It includes a top cornice and a central pedimental gable adorned with a relief urn and husk festoons. There are two shop fronts; the ones in the centre and to the left are late 19th or 20th century double-fronted designs with a frieze and cornice above a modern door, flanked by canted bay windows with colonnettes. The shop front to the right is early 19th century, featuring an entablature over the entrance with panelled pilasters and brackets, a fanlight with simple glazing bars above a small-paned half-glazed door, and a window to the left with bowed ends and small-paned glazing with grilles below.
On the first floor, there is a central window with a sill and fluted brackets supporting an entablature over a 6/6 sash, flanked by canted bay windows. The left bay window has been rebuilt in the 20th century, while the right bay window has a sill and features a frieze and cornice over 4/4:8/8:4/4 sashes. The second floor has segmental-headed windows with sills and keyed archivolts over a 4/4 sash to the right, and two-light casements to the centre and left, which have replaced sashes.
The rear of the building has two half-hipped gabled wings with some sashed windows. The interior has not been inspected.
