Description

28, 30, and 32 King Street is a house and two shops dating from the 17th century, with a rear unit added in the late 18th century. The building is timber-framed and plastered, with a brick ground floor and a 20th-century clay tile roof. It has a rectangular plan, is two stories tall with a rear attic, and features a south front elevation with two early 20th-century shop fronts, now fitted with late 20th-century plate glass. The first floor is made of painted brick and has a hipped roof at the west end, with a dentilled eaves cornice. There are three windows on this floor, with wooden flush frames; two are sashes with four panes by four panes, and one has three panes by four panes.

The west end elevation consists of two blocks arranged as a 'double pile', with the front block having a hip roof covered in peg tiles, clearly showing the junction of the front-facing wall and timber framing. The rear block features a stopped slated gable with a ridge stack and a ground floor window that is a 19th-century segment-headed simple sliding sash with plain panes, alongside a 20th-century two-light casement with two panes by two panes. Behind this, set back, is a higher clay-tiled gambrel roof for the attic, which includes a 20th-century casement window with two panes by three panes.

The north rear elevation is mostly obscured but has a central 20th-century two-light casement dormer window in the gambrel roof. The first floor walling is plastered and includes a 19th-century sash window with three panes by four panes, as well as 20th-century casements. The Royal Commission on Historical Monuments records a cupboard with a 17th-century panelled door.
