Description
No. 2 and No. 2A Bridge Street are two houses dating from the mid-19th century, with No. 2A featuring a shop. The buildings are constructed of red brick with scored pointing and have a peg-tiled hipped roof, along with a red brick chimney stack. They have a rectangular plan and are two storeys high.
The west front elevation consists of two units. No. 2, to the north, has a two-window range with a central stack and a front door located at the south end. The ground floor windows are paired horned sashes with four panes by two panes, featuring good voussoirs and splayed sills, although the reveals are now cement rendered. The first floor has paired 20th-century casements, also with four panes by two panes, and dentilled eaves. The front door has four bead-moulded panels and good voussoirs.
No. 2A features a ground floor doorway to the north, similar to the adjacent door of No. 2, but it is an early 20th-century door with four panels, the upper two of which are glazed and the lower two recessed. There is a shop window with four panes and glazing bars, along with a simple entablature and pilasters, and 20th-century boarding below. The first floor has a blind window recess.
The south elevation facing Castle Street has similar brickwork, with a chamfered corner on the ground floor and corbelled above to form a right angle on the first floor. The ground floor shop window is similar to the one on Bridge Street but consists of two casements with two panes each, totaling four panes by two panes. To the east, there are voussoirs remaining from a blocked window. The first floor features an early 20th-century window with paired two-by-two casements, totaling four panes by two panes, situated above the shop window below. A truncated red brick stack is visible through the lower roof pitch over the blocked window. The north end elevation is rendered and has a fixed pane attic window, with the roof half hipped above.
