Mallets The Corner House

This is an early 19th century house located on the north side of East Street, Wivenhoe. The building is constructed of gault brick and is two storeys high, with a three-window arrangement on the first floor. The windows are small-paned hornless sashes. There is a capped parapet. The central ground floor doorway is framed by two fluted Doric columns supporting a flat entablature, with a key-patterned head to the doorcase. Matching sashes flank the door on the right, and a shop window is positioned on the left. The windows are set within straight, rubbed brick arches. A one-story extension in red brick is visible on the corner of Alma Street. The rear and side walls are also constructed of red brick.
