Description

30 and 31 Trinity Street is an 18th-century building that stands three storeys tall with attics. It is constructed of purple-red brick with rubbed red brick dressings and features a tile roof topped with a dentil wood cornice. The facade has five windows, with those at No 30 including glazing bars, and there are three hipped dormers in the roof. No 30 boasts an original shop front, which includes two shop windows and a central doorway with semi-elliptical heads and glazing bars that extend into two-centred heads. This shop front is divided by reeded pilasters and features a side doorway on the left, which has a six-fielded panelled door and a glazed fanlight in a semi-circular head. In contrast, No 31 has a modern shop front. An old rainwater pipe with a shaped head is also present. The Georgian shop front at No 30 is noted as a particularly good example of its type, and the interior of No 30 retains the original staircase and other good contemporary fittings. The building has been restored and is now part of a single structure with No 29 and Nos 32 and 34. Nos 26 to 38, in sequence, form a group.
