1 AND 1A, WEST STREET (See details for further address information)

1 and 1A West Street are late 16th-century houses that have been altered in the 18th century and later. They now feature ground floor shops, a first floor, and an attic, with No. 1 West Street serving as a flat and No. 68 as offices. The building is timber-framed and plastered, with a jettied first floor that is partly underbuilt by 19th-century shopfronts on the ground floor. The roof is gambrel with old tiles and has two casement box dormers.

The exterior has two storeys and attics. The first floor includes two triple-light flush set sash windows with small panes and exposed boxes with moulded architraves. The left shopfront (No. 1 West Street) features a projecting early 19th-century square bay with arcaded windows, a projecting fascia and cornice, and a recessed half-glazed door with glazing bars and two lower flush panels to the right. The bressumer and jetty are concealed by a moulded coved cornice. There is a central alley door from the 18th century with two recessed panels in a moulded architrave surround. The right shopfront (No. 68) is also early 19th-century, with a shallow projecting bay and a plate glass window, originally with glazing bars, beneath a bressumer, and a three-quarter glazed door with a lower raised fielded panel and bolection surround.

Inside, the first floor front room of No. 1 West Street features ornamental serpentine bracing on either side of the window and an ornamental plaster frieze. It has been suggested that the bracing was originally exposed externally and repeated in the attic floor, and that the front of the building was originally gabled. The long rear outshoots are plastered over timber frame with old tiled roofs, and there is a crown post roof over the outshoot of No. 68.
